6.5.5 Security
Management
The EMS-XDM provides a fully customizable security hierarchy. Users can
partition NEs by group and then limit user access to specific groups. The individual
NEs themselves may be configured to have embedded passwords to protect them
from unauthorized craft terminal access. Only the administrator can view and
change the passwords. For surveillance purposes, a detailed user action log is
included.
6.5.6 Interfaces and Management Transparency
The EMS-XDM supports the eNI CORBA-based interface. (See Section
page 6-3, for more details.) Because the EMS-XDM has been designed as an open
system, the XDM can be managed through any standard compliant NMS.
In addition, it is possible to export current alarms via FTP, retrieve daily endpoint
performance files, and access the database via SQL.
6.5.7 Auto-discovery
eNM LightSoft (or any other NMS managing the eNM-XDM) can make use of the
following auto-discovery capabilities:
♦
Automatic card assignment
♦
Automatic NE recognition
♦
Automatic topology discovery
The automatic card assignment feature operates either in manual or automatic mode.
When activated in automatic mode, cards and modules inserted into managed NEs in
the field are automatically recognized by the EMS-XDM and assigned as a
background task, according to user-defined tables. Alternatively, this feature can be
applied manually to selected NEs. The end result is the same – operators no longer
need to assign each card or module, as the physical insertion triggers this action
automatically.
With the automatic NE recognition feature, each NE automatically appears on the
screen, eliminating the need to create it manually with eNM LightSoft.
The optional automatic topology discovery feature is based on a new
implementation of the J0 byte. When activated, SIO-to-SIO or Optical Supervisory
Channel (OSC) bidirectional links (in SDH/SONET networks) are automatically
identified by the EMS-XDM and uploaded to the NMS layer via the MTNM
interface.
