Creating Provisioning Application for Non-Agent Enabled Devices
Using the DID API, create device objects and add hop information for the devices.
If using NSM, create device, group, application and event objects using the UI.
Write an application using the Event API to publish and subscribe events on the Event Bus. The devices 
can be configured either using pull mode or push mode. The status of the configuration operation will 
also be published on the event bus and can be processed by the application. The XML DTDs for the 
configuration and status messages are documented in Chapter 7.

IMGW works in concert with the Event Gateway to reach legacy devices without a 
built-in event agent
The following sections describe the sequence of operations for initial and partial configuration using 
Cisco Configuration Engine for agent-enabled devices. For the complete list of features offered by Cisco 
Configuration Engine and their usage, please refer to the official Cisco Configuration Engine 
documentation.
