This chapter describes the following tasks to help you find information about CMCCs on your routers:
The options on the ISM Router Management Setup panels apply to all routers that ISM manages. You can override the global setup options by setting up router-specific CMCC options. For more information about setting up router-specific CMCC options, see the section "Setting Up Router CMCC Management Options" in this chapter.
You can set up ISM to monitor the status and performance statistics for the CMCCs that it discovers using the ISM Router Management Setup panel. CMCC management is disabled by default in ISM setup when ISM is first initialized.
ISM uses the CPU Utilization and Free Memory thresholds that you set up on the second ISM Router Management Setup panel to determine the acceptable performance levels for discovered CMCCs on all routers that are monitored by ISM. When these thresholds are exceeded on a router's CMCC, ISM issues a PERF alert for the CMCC on that router if alert generation has been enabled. For information about enabling alert generation, see the section "Managing CMCC Data" in this chapter.
