Managing Device and Credentials
The Device and Credential Repository (DCR) is a common repository of devices,
their attributes, and credentials, meant to be used by various network management
applications. The Device and Credential Admin (DCA) provides an interface to
administer DCR.
DCR helps multiple applications share device lists and credentials using a
client-server mechanism, with secured storage and communications. The
applications can read or retrieve the information. The applications can also update
the information in DCR so that the updated information could be shared with
other applications.
DCR provides:
•
A central place where you can add or import new devices.
•
Easier and faster access to device and credential data.
•
Secure data persistence, access and transport.
•
Rationalized and controlled replication, with less user-level data
reconciliation.
•
Better integration with third-party and Cisco network-management
applications.
