Network Management System for TDMoIP Gateways

RAD's RADview-SC/TDMoIP® is a network management system for RAD’s TDM pseudowire gateways. The powerful remote management tool performs end-to-end provisioning and monitoring of networks operating with RAD’s IPmux pseudowire and Gmux-200 products. RADview-SC/TDMoIP network management for TDM pseudowire gateways includes an open CORBA northbound interface, facilitating integration with third party NMS or umbrella systems. The program can be installed on PCs or Unix stations.

• Automatic node and configuration discovery for fast provisioning

• Automatic service routing, for error-free and efficient bandwidth utilization

• Automatic re-route of protected paths maximize network uptime

• Network services discovery alerts potential network configuration problems to minimize downtime

• Easy integration with third-party NMS products via CORBA

The RADview-SC/TDMoIP network management system for TDMoIP gateways is a powerful SNMP-based provisioning and monitoring tool. The intuitive GUI interface, “point-and-click” functionality and easy-to-follow wizards increase the efficiency and accuracy of the service provisioning process.

RADview-SC/TDMoIP includes an element management and performance analysis tool that monitors the status, configuration and resource availability of the TDMoIP gateways.

The application is based on an open, Java-based client-server architecture. Using CORBA-based APIs, the server application can be easily integrated with the carrier’s front office and back office systems (any third-party application).

Running on either HP OpenView Network Node Manager (NNM) or on SNMPc, the program enables simple integration with other vendors’ management applications.

The RADview-SC/TDMoIP network management system performs automatic provisioning and deployment of TDM pseudowire gateways at their points of deployment. It supports two types of services: regular service, which consists of a hierarchy of central and branch sites; and mesh service, enabling any-to-any connections between gateways.

The ability to perform automated service provisioning from a central site, rather than manual provisioning in the field, improves time-to-market, reduces the number of required on-site visits and lowers customer support costs.

RADview-SC/TDMoIP network management system installed on the specified sub-network, performs site association and defines circuits between TDM pseudowire gateways at associated sites. The application automatically generates a suggested configuration based on the parameters entered by the network manager.

Several intelligent termination options are provided for deactivating, disconnecting and removing circuits. Since the configuration information for a deactivated circuit remains in the RADview service center management application for TDM pseudowire gateways’ database, the circuit can be reactivated with a single mouse click.
