Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager Software Overview
The Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager software adds custom windows and modeling behavior to the
standard Cisco EMF system to provide management of the Catalyst switches.
The Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager helps network administrators manage Catalyst switches by
eliminating the need to have Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and a detailed knowledge
of the Cisco IOS or Catalyst OS required commands. The Cisco Catalyst Switch Manager also helps
simplify the deployment process for the Catalyst switches.
Multiple Element Managers can be installed onto a single Cisco EMF server, which allows multi-device
and multi-vendor management from a single system.
Note
Refer to the Cisco Element Management Framework User Guide for additional information.
