Summary


Although we said the centerpiece of CM is the CE, you can see from this chapter that there are many more components that make up the entire CM picture. We installed several of those components and described a few more. This ends our installation and configuration for the time being, and we'll use these tools to look at more CM features in Chapter 6.
