Configuration management

Overview

OSS applications can use the XML API to perform configuration operations on NFM-P-managed network objects and their associated child objects. This is achieved by sending XML requests that allow the OSS to create, delete, or modify existing objects. These requests can also extend to the object’s children at the same time, if required.

Note: The configuration operations that are allowed on each object is defined in the XML schema. See the Schema Reference. See the XML API Reference for more information about the object hierarchies (relationship between parent and child objects).

The OSS user account privileges define the access and restrictions for configuration operations in NFM-P functional areas. See the chapter on NFM-P user security in the NSP System Administrator Guide for information about configuring user accounts and assigning privileges.

Most of the configuration operations that can be performed on the functional areas of the NFM-P using the GUI can also be performed using the XML API. The main areas for OSS configuration management include:
