System Operation Description for Deployment and Monitoring
The MMCU infrastructure operates mostly independently, though at its starting point, it depends on the
Administrator intervention. In addition, the Administrator may intervene at some points, to effect a change
in Soft Blade operation.
The table below describes the Soft Blade operation, and the states in which the Administrator can intervene
to affect it, in the form of a State Transition Machine (STT).
