Configuring The Xml Interface - Cisco ACE-4710-K9 Administration Manual

Configuring the XML Interface

This chapter describes how to use Extensible Markup Language (XML) to
remotely configure a Cisco 4700 Series Application Control Engine (ACE)
appliance from a network management station (NMS). Any command that you
can configure from the ACE CLI can be configured remotely from a NMS by
exchanging XML documents over HTTP or secure HTTP (HTTPS). You can
transmit, exchange, and interpret data among the applications. In addition, you
can configure the ACE to transfer show command output to an NMS in XML
format for result monitoring and analysis.
Note To use the ACE XML interface, you must have the Admin user role.
