1.The first deployment stage is to manually deploy a Generic (Site) object. A Site object can be looked upon as a container object where you can deploy further objects that represent the

Cisco 12000/10720 Router chassis, line cards and interfaces contained within the chassis. See “Manually Deploying a Generic Site Object” section on page 3-10for further details.

2.The second deployment stage is at the chassis level. The Cisco 12000/10720 Router chassis can be auto discovered or manually deployed. See “IP Auto Discovery of the Cisco Chassis” section on page 3-19or the “Manually Deploying a Cisco 12000/10720 Chassis” section on page 3-20for further details.

Note You can pre-deploy objects (that is, manually predeploy objects) before the Cisco hardware arrives on-site. See “Pre-deployment” section on page 3-58for further details.

3.The third deployment stage is at subchassis level. This involves either subchassis discovery or deploying subchassis objects (modules) manually. See “Commissioning and Subchassis Discovery” section on page 3-26or the “Manually Deploying Modules” section on page 3-30for further details.

Manually Deploying a Generic Site Object

Generic objects are non-technology specific objects. When deploying a generic object, the information you are prompted to provide differs according to the type and number of generic objects you are deploying.

Table 3-1displays a list of generic objects that can be deployed using Cisco 12000/10720 Router Manager.
