System integration support
Compatible systems
CAUTION Service Disruption |
Integrating another system with the NSP requires a thorough understanding of NSP system administration and platform requirements, and is supported only under the conditions described in this guide, the NSP Planning Guide, and the NSP Release Notice.
Such an operation must be planned, documented, and tested in advance on a trial system that is representative of the target live network. Contact NSP professional services to assess the requirements of your NSP deployment, and for information about the upgrade service, which you are strongly recommended to engage for any type of deployment.
CAUTION System Degradation |
Attempting to integrate an incompatible system with the NSP may seriously damage the NSP or the system that you are integrating.
NSP release compatibility with other systems varies by system type; see the NSP compatibility matrix in the NSP Release Notice for information about the following:
The procedures in this chapter describe, for the following independent systems, how to enable compatibility with an existing NSP system, or add the system to an existing NSP deployment as an integrated component:
Note: The WS-NOC integration section includes a rollback procedure for use in the event that the WS-NOC integration fails. See To roll back WS-NOC and NSP integration for information.
