Chapter 1 Cisco WAN Manager Overview
CWM Release 10 Applications
The Statistics Collection Manager (SCM) provides a forms-based interface to establish and modify
statistic collection policies for the network. You can configure statistic collection policies such as which
statistics to collect, and collection interval periods for a node, port, or private virtual circuit (PVC). SCM
provides extensive error handling and logging capabilities that enable reliable collection of statistics for
performance or billing applications.
Security Manager
The Security Manager (SM) application is a new Java-based application for Release 10 of CWM that
provides controlled access to multiple users of CWM based on the unique user ID and password. You
can use Security Management to provide individuals access privileges to perform specific tasks such as
viewing topology or establishing and managing connections. Without the required access privileges,
unauthorized users cannot perform any network management functions.
Wingz Report and Summary Report
CWM Statistics Reports are generated through a graphical reporting package based on the Informix
Wingz Report application. CWM also provides node utilization reports not based on Wingz. These
reports are obtained through the Summary Report application. Both the Wingz Report and the
Summary Report applications provide a point-and-click graphical user interface to generate reports
based on information collected by the Statistics Agents. For each report, the user identifies certain
criteria, such as network object, type of statistics, granularity, report interval, and graphical format,
depending on the Report application selected. For the Wingz Report, the report agent queries the
Informix database and generates a report in the desired format, such as line, bar, 3D, or tabular chart.
Scalability of statistic collection is an important differentiator of CWM.
