Introduction

We've all been here: all those acronyms, variable names and definitions may be overwhelming. 

These guidelines help users to discover the power of nGeniusONE and explore its full potential.

 

Solution

Name

Use meaingfull names for naming appliactions,communities, services ... .  Use as much as possible UPPER CASE.  Don't use space; replace with underscore '_" or hyphen "-". 

 

Prefix

The use of prefix will clarify which varable is used on reports.  It allows for easy filtering and alphabetic ordening of longer lists.

Module Service Configuration

  • as_ = Application Service
  • ns_ = Network Service

Module Global Settings

  • ls_ = Location Key of type Site
  • lv_ = Location Key of type VLAN
  • lr_ = Location Key of type VRF
  • cc_ = Client Community
  • sc_ = Server Community
  • tc_ = Telephony Community
  • ap_ = Application
  • ag_ = Application Group

 

Policy

In most cases, people from different teams will be involved during the configuration and updating of nGeniusONE.

Even in small teams, it is very important to create a set of rules, guidelines or policies on how to create applications, services etc.

It will also prevent duplicate configurations that only take resources from nGeniusONE without adding more visibility.
