Cisco Active Network Abstraction (ANA)
Cisco ANA is a powerful, next-generation network resource management solution designed with a fully
distributed OSS mediation platform that abstracts the network, its topology and its capabilities from the
physical elements. Its virtual nature provides customers with a strong and reliable platform for service
activation, service assurance and network management. For more information about ANA, see
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6776/tsd_products_support_series_home.html.
SNMP MIB Support
To view the current MIBs that the ASR 901 supports, see http://www.cisco.com/go/mibs.
Cisco Networking Services (CNS)
Cisco Networking Services (CNS) is a collection of services that can provide remote configuration of
Cisco IOS networking devices, remote execution of command-line interface (CLI) commands, and
image downloads by communicating with a Cisco Configuration Engine application running on a server.
CNS enables the zero-touch deployment for the ASR 901 router by automatically downloading its
configuration and upgrading its image if needed.
Note The ASR 901 only supports CNS over motherboard Ethernet interfaces.
For more information about CNS configuration, see Enabling Cisco Networking Services (CNS) and
Zero-Touch Deployment.
