Features and Benefits
Features
Benefits
Zero-touch deployment
Zero-touch deployment significantly reduces time and costs of securely deploying remote devices without
the need for device staging or sending technical personnel onsite.
the need for device staging or sending technical personnel onsite.
Highly scalable configuration services
Scalable configuration services allow for mass-scale configuration changes. You can deliver configuration
changes to thousands of devices in minutes rather than hours. You can flexibly schedule the
configuration changes to ensure minimal effect on network and service availability.

Highly scalable image services
Cisco Configuration Engine provides a highly scalable solution for device software image upgrade. You
can upgrade images in an order-of-magnitude less time than with Telnet-based network management
applications. You can flexibly schedule the image upgrades to ensure minimal effect on network and
service availability.

Flexible-velocity template engine
The flexible-velocity template engine allows for highly customizable template management to meet your
business and operation requirements. You can easily import individual remote parameters to generate
configuration for the remote devices. The Cisco Configuration Engine also supports scripting languages
such as Java and Perl for flexible workflow control.
