A network element profile is created for the system with all the information needed for node discovery using the commands below. This information is flooded to the network using IGP.
config>system>network-element-discovery
  profile <profile name>
    neid
    neip
    system-mac
    platform-type
    vendor-id
This profile can be assigned to a VPRN OSPFv2 area for advertisement. Only one profile can be created for each node.
If a value is not set, the following default values are used for these optional parameters:
system-mac = chassis-mac
platform-type = "chassis-name, chassis-type"
vendor-id = "Nokia"
