    The red bar for the month indicates that at least one RNC will be operating above at least one

    engineering limit during that month. This issue can be resolved through

    optimization. Users can also drill down to get more detailed reports of

    the constraint.

    while the orange bar indicates that additional RNCs must be added to support the forecasted

    Optimiser automatically sequences each step to

    eliminate interim capacity and performance issues across any

    network element throughout implementation.

    Implementation of the new design occurs in multiple

    day-by-day steps, creating interim network

    configurations that can cause overload and end

    user performance issues if not properly managed.
