The Cisco Element Managers serve as the foundation for the architecture used in the management of today’s service provider and carrier-class networks. Cisco Element Managers are designed to support the demanding management of services that are mass deployed through global distribution into homes and businesses, where customers have come to expect immediate availability with high-quality service.
Cisco Element Managers provide a range of consistent and comprehensive device-specific fault, configuration, accounting, performance, and security (FCAPS) management across Cisco service provider network equipment including routers, switches and voice gateways. Cisco Element Managers provide common interfaces to applications in the network and service management levels to support service provider OSS components.
