Virtual Infrastructure Extension Manager APIs
This managed object type provides directory and basic management services for all registered extensions.
Clients use the ExtensionManager, available in ServiceInstance, to access extension objects.
While several authentication methods are available for extension servers to use (see SessionManager), only one authentication method is valid for an extension at any given time.
