Workflow to manage ESA objects

Purpose

The following workflow describes the sequence of high-level tasks required to create and configure ESA objects. This workflow assumes that the physical 7750 SR devices have been installed, commissioned, and discovered. See Chapter 8, Device commissioning and management for more information about device commissioning. See Chapter 9, Device discovery for more information about device discovery.

Note: ESAs group objects can be accessed using the equipment navigation tree. See Chapter 3, NFM-P navigation tree for more information about using the equipment navigation tree.
