Avaya MultiService Network Manager
Avaya MultiService Network Manager provides customers with either a standalone product or one that
can integrate with the HP OpenView NMS, and includes applications that allow customers to manage
network devices. These applications include:
•Avaya MultiService Address Manager — displays a centralized list of hosts in the network, and
correlates among IP addresses, MAC addresses, and device port connectivity.
•Avaya MultiService Configuration Manager — provides quick network setup and installation,
fast recovery for faulty devices, downloading/uploading configuration data, backup of
configuration files, and export of configuration files to other sources for reporting or analysis.
Accessible from within Avaya MultiService Configuration Manager, Avaya MultiService
EZ2Rule Manager is a campus-wide application that provides Quality of Service (QoS)
management for small sites with limited bandwidth resources. In addition, Avaya MultiService
EZ2Rule Manager enables the user to preview the application of new rules before network
deployment, ensuring accurate and consistent deployment of priorities in the network.
•Avaya MultiService Console — provides the discovery of IP-enabled devices, hierarchical map
representation, device status, fault monitoring, and a launch point for device managers.
•Avaya MultiService Software Update Manager — downloads software to managed Avaya
MultiService devices, and performs all necessary software maintenance operations. These
operations include checking current software versions against the latest versions available from
the Avaya Web site, recommending updates, and providing an inventory of Avaya MultiService
data devices residing on the network.
•Avaya MultiService VLAN Manager — a graphical application for VLAN management that
allows for configuration and monitoring of VLAN use. Avaya MultiService VLAN Manager
assigns and maintains VLAN numbering and naming, tracks additions and changes to the
network, validates VLAN name and tag values, and monitors the number of VLANs in order to
assist in maintenance tasks.
Avaya MultiService Network Manager supports converged network environments composed of multi-
vendor equipment from key vendors and will be enhanced to support all Avaya IP voice systems and data
devices to create a full convergence solution.
Avaya MultiService SMON Manager
Avaya MultiService SMON Manager monitors the Ethernet and provides complete visibility of all
switched traffic in the network. Although SMON Manager is an application provided with Avaya
MultiService Network Manager, SMON Manager requires a license key before it can be used.
Avaya Fault and Performance Manager
Avaya Fault and Performance Manager operates standalone or with Avaya MultiService Network
Manager and/or HP OpenView to provide a network map or system view of a converged network. Use it
to view fault and performance data, busyout boards and ports, acknowledge exceptions, and configure
collection times and information.
