Cisco Nexus vs Cisco Manager

What's the difference between the Cisco Nexus and Cisco Manager protocols?

If my understanding is correct, the Cisco Manager is a generic protocol that can communicate with each Cisco product. Why would we use the Cisco Nexus protocol?

From a commercial point of view:

  • Cisco Manager driver is a generic connector that can be used for all the standard Catalyst type of switches of the range 1,2,3,4xxx series
  • Other products have specific DataMiner connectors:
    • NEXUS (different OS), ASA, IE, ASA, etc.

In a nutshell: the generic Cisco Manager connector serves the standard Catalyst range of products (1,2,3 and 4xxx), for all other products a dedicated connector is commercially required.
