NFM-P product overview

Overview

The NFM-P is a network management system that is designed to manage proprietary devices. The NFM-P also provides limited management of other third-party devices, which are called generic NEs.

The NFM-P network management key features include:

• alarm correlation up to the service level

• service and routing provisioning using policies and profiles to reduce the repetition of effort

• inventory reporting at the equipment, service, and customer levels using filtered views that can be saved as report files

• network performance and accounting data collection on a per-service or per-port basis using a flat-rate, destination, or usage schema

• troubleshooting at the service level, which includes viewing the associations between services and entities such as customers, equipment, and transport tunnels

• OSS interfaces that provide access to the NFM-P functions from other systems

The NFM-P software architecture is based on industry standards. See the NSP Architecture Guide for more information.

The main NFM-P system components are the following:

• a Java-based main server and an Oracle relational database in a standalone or redundant configuration

• auxiliary servers

• Java-based NFM-P GUI clients

• platform-independent OSS clients

See the NSP Architecture Guide for information about the NFM-P system structure and components.
