General Information
The NMU supervises and monitors radio performance for and acts as a network element
of a network management system (NMS). One version of the NMU, P/N MLN7481,
operates using P4 routing protocol and proprietary management communications. A
recent version, P/N 8050538-00, operates in Ethernet networks using internet protocol
(IP) routing and simple network management protocol (SNMP) communications. The
NMU board mounts on the ACU (Section 3-7).
The MLN7481 normally ships as a option with its associated hardware (MLN1532).
NMU MLN7481C, or later, ships with systems within loop-protected networks.
The CM SNMP option includes the 8050538-00 NMU that Appendix G details. This
NMU allows radio management with any SNMP
v1
-capable management application.
Functional Description
NMU operation controls network management communication using its real-time
operating system. Update the OS from any Telescan network manager or mediation
device. Operation includes the following (Figure 3-15-1):
•
Collects node summary data from the equipment, time and date
stamps it, and forwards it to the NMS master.
•
Monitors parity errors and calculates BER and errored seconds.
•
Allows local access through an RS-232 port at 9.6 kbps, 8, N, 1.
•
Communicates with the NMS through a digital bridge using four
wire RS-485 or an RS-422 interface. The data is asynchronous at
19.2 kbps, 8, O (odd), 1.
•
Supports software download through the NMS.
•
Permits access of NMS over the embedded overhead without sacri-
ficing system performance.
•
Monitors NMU power and performance.
•
Controls the communication bridge from ACU and embedded over-
head channel.
