Onboard Devices and Discover Network
A device is added after a REST API call is issued to onboard the device. The Device Manager initiates data collection and this data is collected and translated into TAPI model which is eventually published to Hierarchical Controller.
For more information, see Cisco Optical Network Controller TAPI Northbound Interface API Guide.
You can onboard a device using Cisco Optical Network Controller GUI.
