- Rapid and scalable deployment through dynamic, template-based policy management based on security profiles
- Transparent operation management through an XML API that can enable programmatic integration with third-party management and orchestration tools
- Collaboration across security and server teams while maintaining administrative separation and reducing errors through a consistent and repeatable deployment model
Cisco VNMC can enable centralized management of Cisco virtual services to be performed by an administrator or programmatically through its GUI and XML API. Cisco VNMC is built on an information-model architecture in which each managed device is represented by its subcomponents (or objects), which are parametrically defined. This model-centric approach enables a flexible and simple mechanism for securing virtualized infrastructure using Cisco ASA 1000V Cloud Firewall virtual security services.
