IDP – Connectivity: Can I create DCF connections which aren’t based on LLDP tables

Hi Dojo,

Is there a way that IDP can create DCF connections which aren't based on LLDP data?

In my case I have a DOM object which is a list of devices and a DOM object containing the connections between those devices.
I've already succeeded with automation scripting to let IDP create the elements for those devices, but now I need to setup the DCF connections between them.

In case IDP doesn't support this, is there a way that I can do it from Automation?

Hi Jens,

The way IDP works with LLDP tables is through an automation script that collects the data from the LLDP tables in the elements and then makes the relations with the DCF interfaces available, at the end all the information is sent to the IDP Connectivity element which is in charge to create the connections between the devices.

Having said that, you could create an automation script that instead of looking at the LLDP tables in elements, it should go to your DOM object to find which interfaces make match with the DCF ones and at the end the information will be passed out to the IDP Connectivity element in its Connections table so it will be able to provision DCF connections.

Regards.
