Compaq Software Product Description ______________________________________________________________________________ PRODUCT: TeMIP Access Module for Ericsson AXE10 Wireline Switch SPD 70.51.00 DESCRIPTION TeMIP is a family of software products for the management of telecommunications and corporate networks, including fixed wire and mobile/cellular voice and data, multi-vendor, multi-technology networks. TeMIP V3.2 provides comprehensive off-the-shelf fault and trouble management functions such as Alarm Handling, Event Logging and Trouble Ticketing for telecommunications network management. TeMIP supports the International Standards Organization (ISO) management standards ISO 10164-x and ISO 10165-x, and the OMNIpoint 1 standards as defined by NMF and T1M1. TeMIP and its features are applicable in the context of the International Telecommunication Union-Telecom Standard Sector (ITU-T) X.73x and Telecommunications Management Network (TMN) M.3010 and M.3100 Recommendations. TeMIP gives network operators a global view of their networks, and enables them to activate management functions and operations from single or multiple workstations. TeMIP is built on top of the TeMIP Framework and fully benefits from the object oriented and truly distributed software architecture. The TeMIP AXE10 Wireline Access Module (AM) provides an interface to the Ericsson AXE10 Wireline switching system (Application System 26). This Access Module supports: . Fault management capabilities: reception and processing of unsolicited alarm messages. . Performance management capabilities: collection of performance parameters from an exchange pertaining to traffic management. (this refers to the "Performance Fragment" of ITU-T Q.823). . Traffic management capabilities: put "Traffic Controls" into effect to manipulate the flow of calls through an exchange (this refers to the "Control Fragment" of ITU-T Q.823). The TeMIP AXE10 Wireline AM can work, depending on the license installed, as a: . Level 1 AM addressing Fault Management only. . Level 2 AM addressing Fault and Performance Management. . Level 3 AM addressing Fault, Performance and Traffic Management. SOLUTION COMPONENTS The AXE10 Wireline switch is directly interfaced to TeMIP by means of a combination of Management Modules: . The RS232 Communication Server Access Module, responsible for establishing and maintaining the physical connection to the equipment. (As an alternative to the RS232 Communications Server, either the X.25 (SVC) or TCP (IP sockets) Communications Servers could also be used). . The AXE10 Wireline AM, responsible for the Information Model representing the management capabilities of the equipment as well as all associated semantic translations between its ASCII-based messaging interface and TeMIP data models. INFORMATION MODEL OUTLINE For Fault Management purposes the switch is modelled as 14 subsystems, which present a standard view of Wireline Switches, independent of technology. The subsystems are represented by the first level of child class and have just one instance each. This allows TMN managers to have a common view of different exchanges in a multi-vendor environment. The classes that show the specific hardware/software of the AXE10 are located below the subsystem level. The switch itself is represented by the AXE10_WLN class, of which the 14 subsystems classes are children. The meaning of each class is described in Table 1. The "AM Type" column shows for which AM level the corresponding class is supported Table 1: AXE10_WLN Hierarchy Class Description (Fault Management) Class Child Class Child Class Description Cardinality AM Type ----- ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- ------- Accounting Exchange accounting 1 Level 1, (billing) subsystem. 2, 3 CHS Charging Subsystem.

Table 2 below presents the AXE10 information model pertinent to Performance and TrafficManagement. The classes in the left-hand column are children of the switch class (AXE10_WLN).

Table 3 provides a list of these alarms. The mapping of the alarm fields to the ITU-T Standards complies with the following guidelines: . Managed Object: The managed object instance can be the "GEN" instance for the classes that have only one instance (refer to Table 1: AXE10_WLN Hierarchy Class Description) or can be built from the message body. . Severity: The alarm severity is driven by the message header. . Event Type and Probable Cause: These fields are driven by the alarm type. . Additional Text: The additional text contains the original alarm message, cleared of obtrusive messages and blank lines. Alarm Clearance (Level 1, 2, 3) According to ITU-T standards, the clearance of an alarm can be done based on the following rule: . The alarm has the severity Clear: the Managed Object is the same as that of a previous alarm and the Notification Identifier field is the same as the Notification Identifier of the previous alarm. In order to clear a previous alarm, the AXE10 sends a message with the same alarm number and with a "cease flag" in the message body. The AXE10 Wireline AM generates a Notification Identifier for each alarm message, and also for the clearance alarm, so that TeMIP Alarm Handling can perform the clearance correlation whenever required. Alarm Information (Level 1, 2, 3) Table 3 lists the AXE10 Wireline alarm messages that are described in the AXE AS26 Command & Printout Manual.

TRAFFIC TYPE MEASUREMENT RESULT . TRAFFIC DISPERSION MEASUREMENT PER ROUTE RESULT . TRAFFIC MEASUREMENT ON ROUTES RESULTS, LSR . TRAFFIC DISPERSION MEASUREMENT PER DESTINATION RESULT . PROCESSOR LOAD MEASUREMENT RESULT Traffic Controls (Level 3) The following controls are supported by the AXE10 Access Module: . CANCEL_FROM: This control is created on an outgoing or two way route to prohibit traffic from overflowing into the next-in-chain routes. This control can be used for prohibiting overflow of directly routed traffic, alternately routed traffic, or both. . CANCEL_REROUTED: This control is created to prevent additional rerouting or alternate routing of calls that have already been rerouted. Rerouted calls are not allowed to overflow the route specified in the CANCEL_REROUTED control, while normal overflow traffic is not affected. . CANCEL_TO: This control is created to cancel direct routing, alternative routing, or both types of routing to a specified route. The cancellation of direct routing controls the amount of directly routed traffic accessing a route. Cancelling alternative routing will prevent overflow traffic from accessing a route. . DCC: This control (Destination Code Control) is created to control calls to a specific destination. The calls are controlled using one of the following methods: - Percentage (Code Blocking) - Rate (Call Gapping) The Code Blocking control prevents routing to a specific destination on a percentage basis. Code Blocking can be done on a country code, an area code, an exchange identification code, or an individual line number. The Code Blocking control is typically used for immediate control of focussed overloads or mass-calling situations. The Call Gapping control sets an upper limit on the output rate of calls to a specific destination. The upper limit is set by specifying a time period (interval) during which no more than one call should be permitted. This control ensures that the number of call attempts that are routed will never exceed the specified output rate, regardless of the call arrival rate. Call Gapping is typically used for the control of focussed overloads, particularly mass-calling to an individual line number. A detailed analysis may be required to determine the proper call-rate parameters. The Leaky Bucket control causes the number of call attempts to a destination to be limited to a predefined call attempt rate. All call attempts to this group that exceed this predefined limit are rejected. . SCR: This control (Selective Circuit Reservation) is created to block outgoing traffic that has a poor chance of completion on the specified Route. . SKIP: This control is created on outgoing routes to cause traffic routing to skip the route and advance to the next in-chain route in the routing table. This control eases congestion on routes with facility problems. The SKIP control can be used to affect directly routed traffic, alternatively routed traffic, or both. . TAR_FROM: This control (Temporary Alternative Routing From) is created to temporarily increase the number of routing possibilities. This control adds new routes at the end of a routing table, or between existing routes, to provide additional overflow paths. . TAR_TO: This control (Temporary Alternative Routing To) is created to temporarily increase the number of routing possibilities. This control adds new routes at the beginning of a routing table, so that traffic is first offered to the new routes before being offered to the normal routes in the routing table.
