About the FrameSaver FLEX 9123

OpenLane SLM System

Being standards-based, the OpenLane SLM (Service Level Management) system can be used with other management applications like HP OpenView or IBM's NetView. OpenLane includes HP OpenView adapters for integrating OpenLane features with the OpenView Web interface.

Being Web-based, the OpenLane system provides Web access to the data contained in the database to provide anytime, anywhere access to this information via a Web browser.

Some of the OpenLane system's features include:

HReal-time performance graphs provide exact performance measurement details (not averages, which can skew performance results) of service level agreement (SLA) parameters.

HHistorical SLV graphs provide service level management historical reports so frame relay SLAs can be verified.

HDiagnostic troubleshooting provides an easy-to-use tool for performing tests, which include end-to-end, PVC loopback, connectivity, and physical interface tests.

HBasic configuration allows you to configure FrameSaver devices, and set RMON alarms and thresholds. Network DLCI Circuit IDs can also be assigned.

HAutomatic SLV device and PVC discovery allows all SLV devices with their SLV Delivery Ratio configuration option enabled to be discovered automatically, along with their PVCs.

HA FrameSaver unit can be reset from the OpenLane system.

HFirmware downloading provides an easy-to-use tool for downloading to an entire network or a portion of the network.

HOn-demand polling of FrameSaver devices, and SNMP polling and reporting are available.

HMultiple maintenance schedules allow for the scheduling of more than one periodic maintenance period, and provides a report for each scheduled task.

HMultiple Circuit IDs allow multiple access levels so network service providers can offer their customers service level-specific access to network management information, and so end users can have open access to network management information without losing control of their network(s).
