A proven and scalable network management solution for multitechnology, multiservice networks

The Alcatel-Lucent 5620 NetworkManager (NM) is an open, scalable,highly available multiservice networkmanagement platform that is deployedin more than 1,000 networks, includ -ing 350 of the world’s largest serviceproviders. The 5620 NM managesAlcatel-Lucent’s Multiservice Wide AreaNetwork (MSWAN) product portfoliothat includes TDM, frame relay, ATM,Ethernet, DSL and IP-capable networkelements.

What’s New in Release 8.0In Release 8.0, the Alcatel-Lucent 5620NM continues with the strong focus onfeatures which are relevant to mobilenetwork environments: from addingsupport for the Alcatel-Lucent PSAXfamily of products to enabling manage-ment of important features deliveredby the Alcatel-Lucent 7670 RoutingSwitch Platform (RSP) R7.1, 7670 EdgeServices Extender (ESE) R5.1, and 7470Multiservice Platform (MSP) R9.1.

Release 8.0 of the Alcatel-Lucent 5620NM adds the management support foradvanced protection capabilities (1:Nline card protection on the 7670 ESE),new cards (new 1-port OC-3/STM-1cards with SFP modules, new 16-portT1/E1 MS card on the 7470 MSP, new 3-port DS3 CR Card on the 7470 MSP/7670 ESE) and new I/Os (STM-4/OC-12I/O for the Edge Service Card on the7670 RSP), as well as the managementsupport for a number of featureenhancements (enhanced CR/IMA,multishelf ESC).

For 3G and HSPA enviroments, theAlcatel-Lucent 5620 NM deliversextensive support for ATM, includingfeatures such as round trip delay, andalso provides advanced managementcapabilities for pseudowires/labelswitched paths (LSPs) and IP-VPNs onthe 7670 RSP. With the Path MigrationTool (PMT), a mobile network operatorcan perform en masse (bulk) assignmentor reconfiguration of thousands ofNode Bs to RNCs.

2 Alcatel-Lucent 5620 NM | Release 8.0

For mobile environments where networkrestoration is of paramount importanceand SPVCs are deployed, the 5620 NMprovides full management of both point-to-point and point-to-multipoint SPVCs.

For 2.5G/GPRS environments, additionalframe relay traffic management enhance -ments allow for greater control andflexibility in mapping of frame relay to ATM traffic parameters.

Integration with OSS/BSS systems isfurther improved via an improvedscript management tool that offersCMIP/CORBA OSS interface (OSSI)support.
