Versatile and robust management capabilities
As part of the Alcatel-Lucent optical portfolio, the 1643 AMS is supported by the Alcatel-Lucent 1350 Optical Management System (OMS), a flexible network management package customized to meet specific operational needs. With OMS, the 1643 AMS is managed through an embedded communications channel. The 1643 AMS also supports a PC- based craft interface for local and remote management and low-cost centralized alarming. In addition, the 1643 AMS can be integrated into Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) management systems.
The 1643 AMS derives fault-manage- ment information by monitoring and analyzing information contained in the path overhead of each virtual
container (VC). Alarm information is filtered and displayed locally, and transmitted to the management- center database.
Performance-management infor mation from the overhead bytes is analyzed and stored in the database of the 1643 AMS. When equipped with a TransLAN Card, the 1643 AMS stores Ethernet-specific per formance information. This feature facilitates quick turnaround for physical-configuration changes. For data communication networks (DCNs), the 1643 AMS offers several data communication channel (DCC) functions, providing multivendor interworking opportunities.
The 1643 AMS is a compact and cost-effective multiservice unit that enables next-generation services over existing SDH networks.
