  • 5620 SNMP Descriptor Module 1-1

    Chapter 1 Introduction This chapter provides a general overview of RAD Data Communications ACE-2002/2002E Network Termination Unit Model Descriptors (NTU MD), hosted by the 5620 SNMP Descriptor Module. The 5620 SNMP Descriptor Module is invoked from the 5620 Network Manager and is used to monitor and configure SNMP nodes.

    1.1 5620 SNMP Descriptor Module

    The 5620 SNMP Descriptor Module provides remote configuration and monitoring of SNMP nodes for the ACE-2002/2002E NTU, through a point-and-click graphical user interface. The 5620 SNMP Descriptor Module uses descriptors to represent transmission equipment units. The 5620 SNMP Descriptor Module application includes interfaces to manage Alcatel and third party nodes.

    The ACE-2002/2002E model descriptors are a collection of equipment descriptors for the ACE-2002/2002E NTU. See Figure 1-1.

    Equipment descriptors represent the functionality of a device, its slots and its ports. The model descriptors provide element management capabilities within the limits of the MIB objects that the device supports. In addition, the ACE-2002/2002E model descriptors will perform all parameter validation and any applicable data range/limit checks.

    1.2 ACE-2002/2002E Product Overview

    ACE-2002/2002E is a Multiservice Access Concentrator and a Network Termination Unit (NTU) for public and private ATM networks. It can be used for:

    • Data and voice services as Multiservice Access Concentrator.

    • Native ATM services as A-NTU (ATM NTU).

    • Network Junction Unit (NJU) applications.

    ACE-2002/2002E allows service providers to offer converged WAN services in a fully ATM-featured product. It enables seamless migration of traditional services (LAN, voice) to ATM. As an enterprise ATM access concentrator, ACE-2002 provides a service platform to which routers, PBXs, LAN, video codec and other corporate devices can be connected.

    ACE-2002/2002E is located at the customers' premises and controlled by the public carrier, or can be used as part of a corporate ATM-based WAN network.

    The ACE-2002/2002E unit supports a wide variety of swappable interfaces for different rates and media on user and network ports. It includes four slots:

    • Up to three user slots connected to the user private network

    • Network slot connected to the public ATM network (there might be two network slots used in case of a redundant uplink).

    1.3 5620 Network Management Architecture

    The 5620 Network Management System consists of three management layers, from bottom to top in the hierarchy:

    1. Element Management Layer

    2. Network Management Layer

    3. Service Management Layer

    The Alcatel 5620 NMS open architecture facilitates the integration of multi-vendor devices management. Employing Model Descriptors (MDs), it can manage SNMP and TL1 third-party elements. The MD interprets SNMP messages between the managed devices and the 5620 Descriptors Module (formerly 5520 SNMP Element Manager). Using a descriptor, the service provider can manage provisioning of new nodes or modify and support existing ones.

    The Alcatel system allows the network administrator to maintain multiple MD. Management capabilities are easily extended for new node types by simply adding relevant MD to the ensemble. A dedicated descriptors ensemble for each node type is required (see Figure 1-2).

    Drawing Tool The 5520 SNMP DM Drawing tool uses data provided by the ACE-2002/2002E MD to display a graphical representation of the node’s components and subcomponents (i.e. ACE-2002/2002E front and rear panels as shown in Figure 2-12. The LEDs on the drawing of the front panel are colored in accordance with the Node Status).

    Each module has toolbar buttons that enable the operator to launch appropriate Configure and Monitor forms for the selected interface.

    You can click on a component displayed in the Drawing application to obtain a graphical view of the contained components. The number of nesting levels is unlimited.

    Context sensitive menus allow you to invoke the Model Descriptor Configuration, Monitor, or other Forms.

    To launch the Draw tool:

    1. In the 5620 Network map, right-click on an ACE-2002/2002E Node icon, and select Object > Draw.

    Draw displays a visual image of the managed device, including its components and their relevant status indications (see Figure 2-12).

    Navigator Tool The 5520 SNMP DM Navigator tool uses the data provided by the ACE-2002/2002E MD to display the node’s containment hierarchy. You can double-click on a component in the Navigator application to show the contained components.

    Context sensitive menus allow you to invoke the Model Descriptor Configuration, Monitor, or other Forms.

    The Navigate tool provides a Navigator window that presents the components of the ACE-2002/2002E node in a hierarchical list. Each node can be selected and expanded to view the components of the node. Each object in the hierarchy is a selectable object.

    For each of these objects, the Configure and Monitor tools are often available through the Object menu button (or right mouse button click) of the 5620 SNMP DM form.

    Connections are added, deleted and configured through the Navigator tool only.

    To launch the Navigator:

    • In the Draw application, click the Navigator button.

    As shown in Figure 2-13, the Navigator tool facilitates an auto-discovery block that maps the node, slot, interface, and connection into the managed object hierarchy.

    Configuration Tool The Configuration tool allows you to configure the SNMP node attributes.

    The ACE-2002/2002E MD determines the attributes on the ACE-2002/2002E node and the components that you can configure on the 5520 SNMP DM GUI.

    The Configuration tool is available for most components and allows displaying and modifying the values of scalar parameters and tables. A menu item selected from the Configure menu hierarchy opens a form containing attributes or another menu leading to a form. The attributes consist of selectable entities comprised of read-only or read-write type parameters. The read-write parameters can be modified either by entering text, deleting text, or selecting menu choices.

    The "SAVE" icon is used to update any parameters that were modified in the Configure form. This typically results in the transmission of an SNMP set command to the node. Chapter 3 and Chapter 4 describe the Configure form that is applicable to each managed object in the node.

    Monitor Tool Monitor forms are read-only; they allow 5520 SNMP DM users to monitor the node’s objects. The ACE-2002/2002E MD defines which attributes and statistics 5520 you can monitor on the 5520 SNMP DM GUI.

    The Monitor tool is available for most components and allows displaying statistics. The Monitor tool provides each selected object with a menu hierarchy.

    A menu item selected from the Monitor menu hierarchy opens another menu item or a form containing attributes. The table contents or parameter values cannot be modified.

    5520 SNMP DM does not allow calling a form from another form.

    Rediscover Tool The Rediscover tool is available for a number of components to allow you to explicitly check the population of subcomponents. There is no form associated with this action and the revised component list is shown on the Navigator form.

    When using the Rediscovery tool, it is not possible to manipulate other components until the process ends.

    Status Bar A Status Bar is located on every form (or dialog box) of the ACE-2002/2002E MD application.

    The Status bar displays various error messages, such as "Node not responding’, "General error" etc., and rediscovery indication.
