Hello
I need some help with Topology services in Campus Manager application in LMS. I have some branches in our network. They are connected to our LAN network through IPSEC/GRE tunnels over WAN network. I would like to show these links in topology services view. Is that possible? Currently they look like standalone device without conenction in network topology view. Our version of of Campus Manager is 5.2.2.
Thank you for help
Best regards

I think it can be done but you have to alter the device configs (there may be some sideaffects to this so don't test this in prod environment)
You create tunnel interfaces on both sides and connect them.Not need to push site traffice throught the tunnel though.
Make sure CDP is on on these tunnel interface. I don't recall if it is on by default or if you need to enable it on these interfaces.
Once the sh cdp on both routers show the other devices as neigbor campus can discover the link in between.
Cheers,
Michel

Hello
Thank you. It worked. I enable CDP on Tunnel interfaces and devices are now connected in Network topology view.
I have additional question. I also have ASA FW in our network. Is it possible to display ASA connection in network topology view?

I don't think the ASA will do CDP.
But I'm not too familiar with the product.
Links in campus require tha t both sides see each other with CDP.
Cheers,
Michel
