Updated: May 13, 2016

Applies To: System Center 2012 SP1

In the self-service networking scenario, you use Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) in System Center 2012 Service Pack 1 (SP1) to set up an environment where self-service users—your clients or customers—can create their own virtual machines and configure networks for those virtual machines. You can use VMM together with two other System Center components, Operations Manager and App Controller, to help support your self-service users.
