Starting Cisco EMF and Cisco 12000/10720 Router Manager
The Cisco 12000/10720 Router Manager application is viewed through the CiscoElement Management
Framework (CiscoEMF). It is important to understand how Cisco EMF works before you use the Cisco
12000/10720 Router Manager application (refer to the Cisco Element Management Framework User
Guide for further details). Cisco 12000/10720 Router Manager automatically starts when you start a
Cisco EMF user session.
Note Each active Cisco EMF session uses a single Cisco EMF user license.
