Introduction

Network Configuration Manager (NCM) is a management application that provides centralized configuration and system management capabilities for a multi-BCM network. NCM automates data backups and supports efficient distribution of common files. Common configuration tasks can be automated by scheduling optimized work flows. With NCM, bulk distribution of BCM software patches becomes a simple, efficient, and automated process.

This release of NCM for BCM3.7 enables you to update your existing NCM3.6 installation to add support for BCM3.7 systems, in addition to those BCM systems already supported by NCM3.6.

This chapter provides the following information:

•“New features”

•“Supported platforms”

•“Known anomalies in NCM for BCM3.7 cartridge” on page 14

•“NCM3.6 CRs corrected on NCM for BCM3.7 cartridge” on page 14
