Marlos Barroso to Everyone: Can we integrate Spectrum with UIM, former Nimsoft?
Widjaja Sangtoki to Everyone: that's great... adoption for WLC support is quick in our region... I know at least 2 customers here using it already... I hope that will be the same with Aruba WiFi support
Nagesh Jaiswal to Everyone: Yes. The integration is bi-directional
Widjaja Sangtoki to Everyone: @Marlos, yes.. we have been supporting it quite some time
Nagesh Jaiswal to Everyone: Right. The unidirectional support is for some time now. With 10.2 we will have bi-directional support

Tarun Pamu to Everyone: Hello Mehmet ..Thanks for joining the session
Widjaja Sangtoki to Everyone: @Mehmet, do you have any questions about Spectrum?
Mehmet to Everyone: hi tarun
Mehmet to Everyone: yes , its regarding topology view
Mehmet to Everyone: we would like to export connectivity to an excel file, is there any possibility to achive this?
Balram to Everyone: @Mehmet : we can get the associations using CLI
Widjaja Sangtoki to Everyone: @Mehmet, as far as I know the only thing we can do is to use CLI 'show association' command
Balram to Everyone: @Mehmet : a script can be written to make it a csv file
Mehmet to Everyone: what about modeling gateway?
Mehmet to Everyone: it generates xml, but it does not show which device connected to which device on which port
Mehmet to Everyone: do you have a sample show association command?
Balram to Everyone: @yes, there are a bunch of associations which need to be fetched to form the output in the way you expect. Example associations are Connects to, Links with, Is_Adjacent_To
Balram to Everyone: @it is definitely achievable via script using CLI
Widjaja Sangtoki to Everyone: there is an "update action" CLI command also to output the connections on a model
Mehmet to Everyone: may i get a sample?
Widjaja Sangtoki to Everyone: KD article TEC1352254
Widjaja Sangtoki to Everyone: I will get the link for you
Tarun Pamu to Everyone: http://www.ca.com/us/support/ca-support-online/product-content/knowledgebase-articles/tec1352254.aspx
