CiscoACI Integration

Overview

The Cisco ACI Integration lets you:

  • Track the state and health of your network
  • Track the capacity of your ACI
  • Monitor the switches and controllers themselves

Setup

Installation

The Cisco ACI check is packaged with the Agent, so simply install the Agent on a server within your network.

Configuration

Host

Follow the instructions below to configure this check for an Agent running on a host. For containerized environments, see the Containerized section.

  1. Edit the cisco_aci.d/conf.yaml file, in the conf.d/ folder at the root of your Agent's configuration directory. See the sample cisco_aci.d/conf.yaml for all available configuration options:

    init_config:
    
    instances:
      ## @param aci_url - string - required
      ## Url to query to gather metrics.
      #
      - aci_url: localhost
    
        ## @param username - string - required
        ## Authentication can use either a user auth or a certificate.
        ## If using the user auth, enter in this parameter the associated username.
        #
        username: datadog
    
        ## @param pwd - string - required
        ## Authentication can use either a user auth or a certificate.
        ## If using the user auth, enter in this parameter the associated password.
        #
        pwd: datadog
  2. Restart the Agent to begin sending Cisco ACI metrics to Datadog.

Containerized

For containerized environments, see the Autodiscovery Integration Templates for guidance on applying the parameters below.

Parameter Value
<INTEGRATION_NAME> teamcity
<INIT_CONFIG> blank or {}
<INSTANCE_CONFIG> {"aci_url":"%%host%%", "username":"<USERNAME>", "pwd": "<PASSWORD>"}

Validation

Run the Agent's status subcommand and look for cisco_aci under the Checks section.

Data Collected

Metrics

See metadata.csv for a list of metrics provided by this integration.

Events

The Cisco ACI check sends tenant faults as events.

Service Checks

cisco_aci.can_connect:

Returns CRITICAL if the Agent cannot connect to the Cisco ACI API to collect metrics, otherwise OK.
