How to Store Cisco EOX Lifecycle Data in CMDB

Cisco EOX API provides four crucial pieces of information that our network teams wish to track for all Cisco network devices in our CMDB:

- Last Date of Software Maintenance Release
- Last Date of Security Vulnerability Support
- Last Date of Service Contract Renewal
- Last Date of Sale

Currently, there are no out-of-the-box fields to store these four pieces of information. Hence, I was wondering about suggestion on whether I should create custom date fields to fulfill this requirement? If so, which table would you recommend adding these fields to – the parent CMDB_CI class or  to a network-specific subclass.

Looking forward to your valuable insights!

Hi @danesh ,

There are no out-of-the-box fields in ServiceNow CMDB to store Cisco EOX dates (like End-of-Sale, End-of-Support, etc.), so we can create custom fields under cmdb_ci_network not to cmdb_ci as the information we are trying to store is for network related data.
