Chapter 1 Product Overview
Introduction to the Cisco 6260 System
Cisco EMF is based on an object model in which network elements or modules represent the
managed entity. Each object is defined by a class and specific attributes. An object can represent
a network element or a more abstract entity such as a link relationship, a network, or a container
such as a site, shelf, or region.
