Publishing Provisioning Data
Viewing RDU Extensions
You can view the attributes of all RDU extensions directly from the View Regional Distribution Unit
Details page. This page displays details on the installed extension Jar files and the loaded extension class
files.
Publishing Provisioning Data
Cisco BAC has the capability to publish the provisioning data it tracks to an external datastore in real
time. To do this, a publishing plug-in must be developed to write the data to the desired datastore. The
Manage Publishing page identifies information such as the plug-in name, its current status (whether it is
enabled or disabled), and switch to enable or disable it.
You can enable as many plug-ins as required by your implementation but care must be exercised because
the use of publishing plug-ins can decrease system performance.
Note Cisco BAC does not ship with any publishing plug-ins. You must create your own plug-ins and load them
into Cisco BAC in the same way as JAR files are (see Adding Files, page 17-17). Then, manage the
plug-ins from the Manage Publishing page.
