Cisco Element Manager Framework (Cisco EMF) Software
Cisco EMF is an open carrier class management system, designed to integrate with third party products
and proprietary operational support systems.
Many different management protocols, both standards-based and proprietary, are supported by
Cisco EMF in a transparent manner. New network devices are managed instantly and new management
applications can be quickly developed to meet new requirements.
Cisco EMF systems architecture provides a distributed network management solution designed to
manage large-scale networks. Cisco EMF provides the performance required within the logical and
physical architecture and provides user interfaces that support the need to perform mass operations to
large domains within the overall network. In addition, due to the distributed nature of Cisco EMF,
administration tools are provided to "manage" the management system. Refer to the Cisco Element
Management Framework User Guide Release 3.2 (78-12536-01) for further details.
