Implementing Support
So, which pieces of this does a device manufacturer or service provider have to write?
- Firstly the model.
- This is normally done by extending as necessary one of the standard models published by the DMTF.
- Then the BUI, GUI, or CLI.
- The client and server usually do not need to be written because there are many open-source and commercial implementations available (see External links below)
- Then the providers
- In summary, the WBEM architecture allows the manufacturer of a device or developer of a service to provide a standards-compliant management interface to that device simply and cheaply.

Famous quotes containing the word support:
“... the first reason for psychology’s failure to understand what people are and how they act, is that clinicians and psychiatrists, who are generally the theoreticians on these matters, have essentially made up myths without any evidence to support them; the second reason for psychology’s failure is that personality theory has looked for inner traits when it should have been looking for social context.”
—Naomi Weisstein (b. 1939)
