Chapter 1 Cisco MWR 2941 Router Overview
Limitations and Restrictions
Cisco Active Network Abstraction (ANA)
You can also use Cisco Active Network Abstraction (ANA) to manage the Cisco MWR 2941. Cisco
ANA is a powerful, next-generation network resource management solution designed with a fully
distributed OSS mediation platform which abstracts the network, its topology and its capabilities from
the physical elements. Its virtual nature provides customers with a strong and reliable platform for
service activation, service assurance and network management. For more information about ANA, see
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6776/tsd_products_support_series_home.html.

For instructions on how to configure MIBs on the Cisco MWR 2941, see the “Configuring SNMP
Support” section on page 4-108 and the “Enabling Remote Network Management” section on
page 4-112.
Cisco Networking Services (CNS)
Cisco Networking Services (CNS) is a collection of services that can provide remote configuration of
Cisco IOS networking devices and remote execution of some command-line interface (CLI) commands.
CNS allows a Cisco MWR 2941 deployed and powered on in the field to automatically download its
configuration.
Note The Cisco MWR 2941 only supports CNS over motherboard Ethernet interfaces. Other interface types
do not support CNS.
For instructions on how to configure CNS, see the “Configuring Cisco Networking Services (CNS)”
