Command Line Interpreter Management Access Point
The Command Line Interpreter (CLI) provides a command-line based user interface for the
NCS system. It provides a mechanism for describing commands that can be used to manage
configurable entities. The commands are customizable depending on the needs of the
application or NCS and are dynamically registered and deregistered. The functionality provided
by the CLI includes:

SNMP Management Access Point
The SNMP Management Access Point is an SNMP subagent whose purpose is to provide a
mapping between the SNMP management agent and the MASv. This mapping allows
applications and NCS services to access managed objects maintained by applications and
NCS services. The main tasks of the SNMP Management Access Point are:

Message-Based Checkpointing Service
The Message-Based Checkpointing Service (MBCSv) was introduced to complement the SAF-
compliant Checkpointing Service. MBCSv defines a simple synchronization protocol which
keeps an active and one or more of its stand-by entities in synchronization. Unlike the SAF-
compliant Checkpointing Service, the MBCSv does not maintain replicas.
