Understanding Cisco Configuration Engine Software
The Cisco Configuration Engine is network management software that acts as a configuration service 
for automating the deployment and management of network devices and services (see 
). Each 
Configuration Engine manages a group of Cisco devices (switches and routers) and the services that they 
deliver, storing their configurations and delivering them as needed. The Configuration Engine automates 
initial configurations and configuration updates by generating device-specific configuration changes, 
sending them to the device, executing the configuration change, and logging the results.
The Configuration Engine supports standalone and server modes and has these CNS components:
  •
Configuration service (web server, file manager, and namespace mapping server)
  •
Event service (event gateway)
  •
Data service directory (data models and schema)
In standalone mode, the Configuration Engine supports an embedded Directory Service. In this mode, 
no external directory or other data store is required. In server mode, the Configuration Engine supports 
the use of a user-defined external directory.
