Cisco RPMS 1.2 is an enhancement release to RPMS 1.x. New features in Cisco RPMS 1.2 include:
Cisco RPMS Release 1.2 introduces new diagnostic features to help monitor the system's performance. The diagnostic tools have two functions: to gather information so that you can monitor the Cisco RPMS' performance, and to help diagnose system issues caused by network elements that interact with the Cisco RPMS. Both functions help you to track the Cisco RPMS' performance to ensure it runs smoothly, and should problems occur, help you to diagnose and repair the issues.
By using the diagnostic tools, you can accomplish the following:
For more information about the Cisco RPMS diagnostics, refer to Chapter 7 of the Cisco Resource Policy Management System 2.0.1 Troubleshooting Guide.
Another new feature for Cisco RPMS 1.2 is trunk-based VPDN groups. By using trunk-based VPDN, you can differentiate VPDN profiles by trunk groups. You can create VPDN policies so that VPDN calls use the same DNIS number or domain name, but use a different set of VPDN limits and policies according to the trunk associated with the call.
For more information about the trunk-based VPDN groups, refer to the Cisco Resource Pool Manager Server 1.1 Solutions Guide.
Cisco RPMS Release 1.2 also introduces the trunk wildcard feature. Trunk wildcarding of the slot and port numbers simplifies defining trunks and, incidentally, trunk groups. By using wildcards, you can define trunk groups by region, and use them when groups would otherwise contain a long list of inclusive slot and port for UGs.
For more information about the trunk wildcards, refer to the Cisco Resource Pool Manager Server 1.1 Solutions Guide.
