Modeling Devices Overview

For an undeployed M-series or MX-series device, you can create a device configuration in NSM, and then install that device configuration on the physical device.

Adding a single undeployed device to NSM is a four-stage process:

  1. Model the device in the UI.
  2. Create the device object configuration.
  3. Activate the device.
  4. Update the device configuration.

For more detailed information and steps about modeling a device, see “Modeling Devices” in the Network and Security Manager Administration Guide.
