Add a Node

• To add a node to CC-SG:

1. Click the Nodes tab.
2. Choose Nodes > Add Node.

   

3. Type a name for the node in the Node Name field. All node names in CC-SG must be unique. See Naming Conventions for details on CC-SG's rules for name lengths.
4. Type a short description for this node in the Description field. Optional.
5. You must configure at least one interface. Click Add in the Interfaces area of the Add Node screen to add an interface. See Add an Interface.
6. A list of Categories and Elements can be configured to better describe and organize this node. See Associations, Categories, and Elements. Optional.
   • For each Category listed, click the Element drop-down menu, and then select the element you want to apply to the node from the list.

     Note: By default, CC-SG keeps default category names "System Type" and "US States and territories" in English.

   • Select the blank item in the Element field for each Category you do not want to use.
   • If you do not see the Category or Element values you want to use, you can add them through the Associations menu. See Associations, Categories, and Elements.
7. Click OK to save your changes. The node will be added to the node list.

Important: If you move a blade chassis from one Dominion device port to another Dominion device port, interfaces that were added to the blade chassis node in CC-SG will be lost in CC-SG. All other information will be retained.
