Communicating with the NFM-P

Overview

An OSS fault management application can use a JMS and/or an XML/SOAP interface to communicate with the NFM-P server. For alarm management:

• The NFM-P sends network event/alarm notifications using the JMS interface in near-real-time to the OSS. An OSS uses the JMS event stream to monitor new alarms and status changes on existing alarms such as clearing or escalation. See Chapter 4, Event monitoring using JMS for information.

• The OSS uses XML/SOAP to send requests for retrieving information about objects with alarms, historical alarm information, and configuring alarms. See Chapter 5, XML requests for information.

The following sections provide information about JMS messages and API calls that are relevant to a fault management OSS developer.
