Cisco Smart Update is the industry's first 100% pure Java software development toolkit
that lets you programmatically read and update Cisco router configurations using an intuitive
class hierarchy that mirrors the router's IOS configuration. Whether you are adding a new IP
security filter or modifying a VPN Class of Service, this unprecedented approach puts the
power of Cisco router configuration management back in your hands.
A typical application will create a "CiscoRouter" class while providing the hostname and
security credentials, login to the router, get the running configuration, make any required
configuration updates to the class hierarchy, write the configuration back to the router,
and logout. All the details about how to communicate with the router, how to read the router
configuration, and how to send the appropriate IOS commands back to the router to make the
required updates are handled by the toolkit. Making complex router configuration changes couldn't
be easier!
