tem in the network. When an alarm occurs on any of the systems, the icon repre- senting the switch changes color, indicating the severity of the alarm. The system then allows you to zoom in on the various switch components to target the trou- ble. It provides detailed information about the components during this trouble- shooting process. You can query the system for detailed information at any time and request equipment inventories.
DEFINITY G3 Proxy Agent
The DEFINITY G3 Proxy Agent accesses the system management information on DEFINITY and makes it available via the industry standard Simple Network Man- agement Protocol. It provides that information to the DEFINITY G3 Fault Manage- ment application. The protocol is one of several supported by TCP/IP, which is used by many product vendors to send the management information to network management systems.
The enhanced
When used together, the Fault Management and Proxy Agent applications pro- vide network perspective and switch management from one station.
System Access
DEFINITY ECS’s open architecture makes for relatively easy access to essential data.
System Access Interface Support
System Access is the basis for transferring data and administrative commands back and forth between DEFINITY ECS and
DEFINITY ECS System Access includes the end validation feature, which allows translations to be validated by the switch without actually committing a change to the switch. This allows the switch to check translations for errors without making a change in the switch data. End validation is useful for performing data valida- tion on translations that will be downloaded to the switch, as well as for perform- ing audits on translations stored in the adjunct. This capability makes it possible for adjuncts to validate translation data without maintaining a switch image data- base or a copy of the switch validation rules.
