Cisco Nexus Dashboard Insights Installation

About Nexus Dashboard Insights
Cisco Nexus Dashboard Insights (Nexus Dashboard Insights ) is a real-time monitoring and analytics service.
The user content describes the deployment of the Nexus Dashboard Insights service on the Cisco
Nexus Dashboard platform for ACI and DCNM fabrics.
Nexus Dashboard Fabric Controller was formerly known as Data Center Network Manager.
Cisco Data Center Network Manager (DCNM) is renamed Cisco Nexus Dashboard Fabric
Controller (NDFC) starting with Release 12.0.1a.

Prerequisites for ACI

• You have configured NTP settings on Cisco APIC. See Configure NTP in ACI Fabric Solution.

• To use the flow telemetry functions in Nexus Dashboard Insights, Telemetry Priority must be selected in the ACI fabric node control policy. In Cisco APIC, choose Fabric  > Fabric Policies> Policies> Monitoring > Fabric Node Controls > your policy name > Feature Selection to select Telemetry Priority.

• To use the flow telemetry functions in Nexus Dashboard Insights, Precision Time Protocol (PTP) must be enabled on Cisco APIC so that Nexus Dashboard Insights can correlate flows from multiple switches accordingly. . In Cisco APIC, choose System > System Settings > Precision Time Protocol > Admin State to enable PTP.
  The quality of the time synchronization via PTP depends on the accuracy of the PTP Grandmaster (GM) clock which is the source of the clock, and the accuracy and the number of PTP devices such as ACI switches and IPN devices in between.
  Although a PTP GM device is generally equipped with a GNSS/GPS source to achieve the nanosecond accuracy which is the standard requirement of PTP, microsecond accuracy is sufficient for Nexus Dashboard Insights and its flow telemetry, hence a GNSS/GPS source is typically not required.
  For a single-pod ACI fabric, you can connect your PTP GM via leaf switches. Otherwise, one of the spine switches will be elected as a GM. For a multi-pod ACI fabric, you can connect your PTP GM via leaf switches or via IPN devices. Your IPN devices should be PTP boundary clocks or PTP transparent clocks so that ACI switch nodes can synchronize their clock across pods. To maintain the same degree of accuracy across pods, it is recommended to connect your PTP GM via IPN devices.
  See section “Precision Time Protocol” in Cisco APIC System Management Configuration Guide for details about PTP connectivity options.

• You have configured in-band management. See Cisco APIC and Static Management Access.

• You have configured Fabric connectivity in Cisco Nexus Dashboard. See Cisco Nexus Dashboard User Guide.

• If one or more DNS Domains are set under DNS Profiles, it is mandatory to set one DNS Domain as default. In Cisco APIC, choose Fabric > Fabric Policies > Policies >  Global8 > DNS Profile > default > DNS Domains > set one as default. Failure to do will result in the same switch appearing multiple times in the Nexus Dashboard Insights Flow map.

• Deploy ACI in-band network by configuring EPG using the following:
  ◦ Tenant = mgmt
  ◦ VRF = inb
  ◦ BD = inb
  ◦ Node Management EPG = default/

• Nexus Dashboard’s data-network IP address and ACI fabric’s in-band IP address must be in different subnets.

Prerequisites for DCNM

Cisco Nexus Dashboard Prerequisites

• You have configured fabric connectivity in Cisco Nexus Dashboard. See Cisco Nexus Dashboard User Guide for more information.

• The data network must have IP reachability to the fabrics’ in-band IP addresses.

• You have configured 7 persistent IP addresses from the data network to be used in Nexus Dashboard Insights collector services. For IPv6 management, you must have configured 7 IPv6 addresses. See section Cluster Configuration in the Cisco Nexus Dashboard User Guide for more information.

• For a DCNM site installation, the collectors will use persistent IP addresses. You must configure the persistent IP addresses before enabling Nexus Dashboard Insights.

• If Cisco Nexus Dashboard is deployed in VMware ESX, you must enable promiscuous mode for both management and data network interface port groups. See Configuring promiscuous mode on a virtual switch or port group for more information.

• Starting with this release you can use IPv6 addresses to configure persistent IP addresses.
  You must use either IPv4 or IPv6 to configure persistent IP addresses for Nexus Dashboard Insights. See section Cluster Configuration in the Cisco Nexus Dashboard  User Guide for more information.

• IPv6 is supported for the in-band management interface for leaf and spine switches. IPv6 is not supported for an out-of-band management interface for leaf and spine switches.

• Assurance Analysis, Firmware Update Analysis, and Connectivity analysis are not supported for IPv6 underlay EVPN Fabric.

• For IPv6 address support, the site must be running Cisco DCNM Release 11.5(3) or later.

• If adding a DCNM site, the Cisco Nexus Dashboard computes must be L2 adjacent (all of the computes should be in the same subnet).

• Precision Time Protocol (PTP) must be configured on all nodes you want to support with Nexus Dashboard Insights. In both managed and monitor site mode, you must ensure PTP is correctly configured on all nodes in the site.
  ◦ For details about Precision Time Protocol see, Cisco DCNM/NDFC LAN Fabric Configuration Guide.
  Ensure PTP is enabled in Cisco DCNM easy site setup. In the Advanced tab on the Cisco DCNM site setup, check the box for Enable Precision Time Protocol (PTP).
  ◦ The PTP Grandmaster Clock should be provided by a device that is external to the network site. Using Cisco Nexus 9000 series switches as PTP Grandmaster is not supported.
  The quality of the time synchronization via PTP depends on the accuracy of the PTP Grandmaster (GM) clock which is the source of the clock, and the accuracy and the number of PTP devices along the network path. Although a PTP GM device is generally equipped with a GNSS/GPS source to achieve the nanosecond accuracy which is the standard requirement of PTP, microsecond accuracy is sufficient for Nexus Dashboard Insights and its flow telemetry, hence a GNSS/GPS source is typically not required.

Guidelines and Limitations for ACI

• See Cisco Nexus Dashboard User Guide for information regarding the ports required by the Cisco Nexus Dashboard cluster and its services.
• You must use In-band VRF while configuring in-band management. Do not use unique VRF in tenant management for in-band configuration.
• After performing a restore the Nexus Dashboard cluster configuration in Nexus Dashboard, you must uninstall Nexus Dashboard Insights and install Nexus Dashboard Insights again.
• If there is a firewall between the Nexus Dashboard nodes and the network site, the firewall should not be doing NAT for the Nexus Dashboard nodes’ IP addresses or the in-band management IP addresses of the network devices on the site, including the switches and the APIC or the DCNM controllers.

The following Cisco Nexus 9000 ACI-Mode Switches versions are not supported with Nexus Dashboard Insights Flow Telemetry:
◦ 14.2(4i)
◦ 14.2(4k)
◦ 15.0(1k)
If you enable Flow Collection for a Site Group that contains 1 or more unsupported switches,
the status of Flow is displayed as• See Cisco Nexus Dashboard User Guide for information regarding the ports required by the
Cisco Nexus Dashboard cluster and its services.
• You must use In-band VRF while configuring in-band management. Do not use unique VRF in
tenant management for in-band configuration.
• After performing a a restore the Nexus Dashboard cluster configuration in Nexus Dashboard,
you must uninstall Nexus Dashboard Insights and install Nexus Dashboard Insights again.
• If there is a firewall between the Nexus Dashboard nodes and the network site, the firewall
should not be doing NAT for the Nexus Dashboard nodes’ IP addresses or the in- band
management IP addresses of the network devices on the site, including the switches and the
APIC or the DCNM controllers.
• The following Cisco Nexus 9000 ACI-Mode Switches versions are not supported with Nexus
Dashboard Insights Flow Telemetry:
◦ 14.2(4i)
◦ 14.2(4k)
◦ 15.0(1k)
If you enable Flow Collection for a Site Group that contains 1 or more unsupported switches, the status of Flow is displayed as Disabled. After you upgrade the switches to a supported version, the the status of Flow is displayed as Enabled.

Guidelines and Limitations for DCNM

• See Cisco Nexus Dashboard User Guide for information regarding the ports required by the Cisco Nexus Dashboard cluster and its services.
• After performing a a restore the Nexus Dashboard cluster configuration in Nexus Dashboard, you must uninstall Nexus Dashboard Insights and install Nexus Dashboard Insights again.
• If there is a firewall between the Nexus Dashboard nodes and the network site, the firewall should not be doing NAT for the Nexus Dashboard nodes’ IP addresses or the in-band management IP addresses of the network devices on the site, including the switches and the APIC or the DCNM controllers.
• After you upgrade from DCNM 11.5.x to NDFC 12.x, you must export the configuration from Nexus Dashboard Insights for site group with NDFC 12.x IP address and credentials. Importing DCNM configuration file would cause certain services like Assurance Analysis to fail due to DCNM credentials

Important Notes

• Starting with Nexus Dashboard Release 2.1(2), if you are ordering the physical Nexus Dashboard servers, you have the option to choose Nexus Dashboard Insights and  Nexus Dashboard Orchestrator services to be pre-installed on the hardware before it is shipped to you. For more information, see the Nexus Dashboard Ordering Guide.  If you choose the option of pre-installing the services, you must enable the Nexus Dashboard Insights service after deploying Cisco Nexus
  Dashboard as a physical appliance. If you are deploying the virtual form factor of the Nexus
  Dashboard, there are no changes to service installation and you will need to deploy the Nexus
  Dashboard Insights service separately after the cluster is ready.

• Starting with Nexus Dashboard Release 2.2(1), you can define the intended scale for the service running on Nexus Dashboard in the Network Scale area of Cluster  Configuration. During the Nexus Dashboard Insights installation process, Nexus Dashboard sends the network scale data and information about the nodes in the cluster to  Nexus Dashboard Insights. Based on the information, Nexus Dashboard Insights determines the correct deployment profile to be used and installs the service with the right deployment profile. See Cluster Configuration in the Cisco Nexus Dashboard User Guide.
  ◦ If the intended scale is not defined in the Network Scale area for Greenfield or Brownfield scenarios, the service will choose the correct profile for the cluster based on the number of Nexus Dashboard nodes. Depending on the number of Nexus Dashboard nodes, the service will either install the profile that matches the intent or a lower  profile than the requested intent but matches the number of Nexus Dashboard nodes.
  ◦ If the number of Nexus Dashboard nodes is less than the number of expected Nexus Dashboard nodes, you will receive an error and will not be able to start the service.
  ◦ If an incorrect deployment profile is retained after the Nexus Dashboard Insights upgrade, you must delete Nexus Dashboard Insights and re-install the service with the correct deployment profile.

• For cluster sizing information and recommended number of nodes based on specific use cases, see the Cisco Nexus Dashboard Capacity Planning Tool.

• For a virtual deployment profile, you must have 3 data nodes and 3 app nodes. The data nodes must be deployed as master nodes and app nodes must be deployed as worker nodes.

• For a virtual large deployment profile, you must have 3 data nodes and 6 app nodes. Three data nodes must be deployed as master nodes and the rest of the workers can be configured as app or data nodes. See Cisco Nexus Dashboard User Guide.
  ◦ The data node must include the following system resources:
  ▪ 32 vCPU
  ▪ 128 GB of RAM
  ▪ 3 x 1 TB SSD or NVMe disks
  ◦ The app node must include the following system resources:
  ▪ 16 vCPU
  ▪ 64 GB of RAM
  ▪ 550 GB SSD or HDD or NVMe disks

• Deploying Nexus Dashboard Insights on a virtual Nexus Dashboard cluster is only supported on the 4th Generation Intel Core Processor or later.

• Starting with Nexus Dashboard Insights 6.0.2 patch release, deploying Nexus Dashboard Insights on a virtual Nexus Dashboard cluster is supported on AMD Milan or  Rome processors.

• After reloading one of the app nodes in a virtual Nexus Dashboard cluster, it takes about 5-10 minutes for the services to move to any other available data or app node in the virtual Nexus Dashboard cluster. During this time period, the service UI may not be accessible.

Deployment Profile
The deployment profile defines the resources that the Nexus Dashboard will allocate to the Nexus Dashboard Insights service. See Important Notes. The deployment profiles  for Nexus Dashboard Insights include:

• Deployment profile physical-standard: Standard scale profile suitable for more than 50 nodes and 10,000 to 20,000 flows on physical Nexus Dashboard.
• Deployment profile physical-small: Small scale profile suitable for less than 50 nodes and 10,000 flows on physical Nexus Dashboard.
• Deployment profile virtual: Small scale profile for 50 nodes and 2500 flows on virtual Nexus Dashboard Deployment.
• Deployment profile virtual-large: Standard Scale profile suitable for 200 nodes and 5000 flows on virtual Nexus Dashboard. For a virtual deployment profile, you must have  3 data nodes and 3 app nodes. See Important Notes. For a virtual-large deployment profile, you must have 3 data nodes and 6 app nodes.
