Learning Path

The best way to understand features of AdventNet Web NMS and how to customize them is to follow this reading sequence.

1. Go through the Web NMS Architecture in 'Quick Tour' to get an overall picture of how Web NMS has been built and what are its core components.
2. Practical Session - Start with the Web NMS Studio document. The Studio document explains the various details required by developers to customize their Web NMS using the Studio. It provides the basics of working with Studio such as creating and working with Projects, modifying the generated Source to the requirements etc.
3. Next, work with the Tutorials that guide you to design an EMS. Enriched with working, illustrative examples, these Tutorials help you understand the choices to be made during development. In addition, the Javadocs for the Web NMS APIs provide an insight to the different packages, interfaces, classes and methods, and will be of great assistance when you extend and customize Web NMS.
4. Refer to the documents 'User Guide' , 'Administrator Guide' and 'Developer Guide' to understand various features in Web NMS. If the feature has been implemented with the User Interface, this helps you to first learn through Client UI rather than Code (API).
