[cisco-voip] AXL (or SNMP) for realtime statistics

Fri May 5 05:54:07 EDT 2006

AXL is the new way of obtaining info, but for those like me that are not up on scripting yet :-) and need just a quick look then its perfect.  AXL and SOAP is what Cisco has gone to from 4.x and forward but I will like many need to pick up a book to learn it.

AXL RIS and SNMP together can give you a lot of good data-I'd steer clear of the devicelistx page, though-it's gone in 5.0 so would be shooting yourself in the foot if you used it now...

Look at the latest SDK kit it has a lot of good information.  Take this url which will return what you need but you will have to create your own look and feel.

you can read about this any many more items.

Actually, Since MRTG is mostly Perl, it is possible to modify to poll at any interval you'd like.

	We use WMI scripts to graph Call Manager data such as Active calls, VM ports, PRI/DS0 usage etc... This is done at 1 minute intervals using MRTG with RRDTool on the back end, which is not "real-time", but I believe Cricket can poll at less than 1 minute intervals.

	Any way to interface with this?  Documentation again points to SNMP but the CCM-MIB doesn't seem to include the good stuff.

		The Cisco Real-Time Information Server (RIS) data collector is how some of the information that you are trying to get is obtained.  Some is pulled from "memory", like unregistered phones.

		So I thought I read somewhere that I could use AXL to get real-time
		CallManager statistics (# calls in progress, CTI port usage,
		registered/unregistered phones...).  I'm using CCM 4.1(2) and looking at the
		AXL schema for that version.  I can't find anything about real-time
		statistics.  Is it available in this version of CM?  If so, has anyone used
		AXL for real-time stats?

		I'm wanting to get real-time data in a format other than the RTMT.  My plan
		is to fetch and graph using RRDtool (Cricket).  I've been investigating two
		different options:  AXL and SNMP.  SNMP is preferred but I don't believe the
		CallManager MIBs have real-time statistical data (why not?).

		I am thinking that these are obvious data that should be exported and I am
		simply reading the wrong docs / looking in the wrong places.  Help?

		PS: I have found that I can get reg/unreg phones but I'm much more
		interested in call-in-progress data, VM ports in use, etc.
