This
chapter
describes
how
to
administer,
maintain,
and
manage
the
ANM
management
system.
Previous
topics
described
how
to
manage
your
network
devices
on
ANM,
while
this
topic
describes
how
to
perform
procedures
on
the
system
itself.
Note
When
naming
ACE
objects
(such
as
a
real
server,
virtual
server,
parameter
map,
class
map,
health
probe,
and
so
on),
enter
an
alphanumeric
string
of
1
to
64
characters,
which
can
include
the
following
special
characters:
underscore
(_),
hyphen
(-),
dot
(.),
and
asterisk
(*)
.
Spaces
ar
e
not
al
lowed.
If
you
are
using
ANM
with
an
ACE
module
or
ACE
appliance
and
you
configure
a
named
object
at
the
ACE
CLI,
keep
in
mind
that
ANM
does
not
support
all
of
the
special
characters
that
the
ACE
CLI
allows
you
to
use
when
configuring
a
named
object.
If
you
use
special
characters
that
ANM
does
not
support,
you
may
not
be
able
to
import
or
manage
the
ACE
using
ANM.
