Cisco IOS Software Management Capabilities
Feature
Description of Feature Supported by Cisco Integrated Services Routers
WSMA
The Web Services Management Agent (WSMA) defines a mechanism through which you can manage a network device,
retrieve configuration data information, and upload and manipulate new configuration data. WSMA uses XML-based data
encoding that is transported by the Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) for the configuration data and protocol
messages.
EEM
Cisco IOS EEM is a distributed and customized approach to event detection and recovery offered directly in a Cisco IOS
Software device. It offers the ability to monitor events and take informational, corrective, or any desired EEM action when
the monitored events occur or when a threshold is reached.
IPSLA
Cisco IOS IP SLAs enable you to assure new business-critical IP applications, as well as IP services that use data, voice,
and video, in an IP network.
SNMP, RMON,
Syslog,
NetFlow,and TR-069
Cisco 1900 Series Integrated Services Routers also support SNMP, Remote Monitoring (RMON), syslog, NetFlow, and
TR-069 in addition to the embedded management features previously mentioned.
Cisco Network Management Applications
The applications listed in Table 6 are standalone products that you can purchase or download to manage your Cisco
network devices. The applications are built for the different operational phases; you can select the ones that best fit
your needs.

Description
Device staging and
configuration
Cisco Configuration
Professional
●
Cisco Configuration Professional is a GUI device-management tool for Cisco IOS
Software-based access routers. This tool simplifies routing, firewall, IPS, VPN, unified
communications, and WAN and LAN configuration through GUI-based easy-to-use
wizards.
Networkwide
deployment,
configuration,
monitoring, and
troubleshooting
CiscoWorks LMS
●
CiscoWorks LAN Management Solution (LMS) is a suite of integrated applications for
simplifying day-to-day management of a Cisco end-to-end network, lowering OpEx while
increasing network availability. CiscoWorks LMS offers network managers an easy-to-use
web-based interface for configuring, administering, and troubleshooting the Cisco
integrated Services Routers, using new instrumentation such as Cisco IOS EEM.
●
In addition to supporting basic platform services of the integrated services router,
CiscoWorks also provides added-value support for the Cisco Service-Ready Engine,
(SRE) enabling the management and distribution of software images to the SRE, thereby
reducing the time and complexities associated with image management.
Networkwide staging,
configuration, and
compliance
CiscoWorks NCM
●
CiscoWorks Network Compliance Manager (NCM) tracks and regulates configuration and
software changes throughout a multivendor network infrastructure. It provides superior
visibility into network changes and can track compliance with a broad variety of regulatory,
IT, corporate governance, and technology requirements.
Security staging,
configuration, and
monitoring
Cisco Security Manager
●
Cisco Security Manager is a leading enterprise-class application for managing security. It
delivers provisioning of firewall, VPN, and intrusion-prevention-system (IPS) services
across Cisco routers, security appliances, and switch service modules. The suite also
includes the Cisco Security Monitoring, Analysis and Response System (Cisco Security
MARS) for monitoring and mitigation.
