The CLP specifies the syntax and semantics used to manipulate managed elements (MEs),
which are specified as Targets in CLP commands. See Targets on page 154 for the managed

The CLP targets are structured in a tree format with the root node /admin1 at the top and the
map1 node representing the MAP itself. Within the MAP, systems are represented as individual
