GENERAL

Node

4.Node

A Fusion network consists of the following types of nodes:

Network Control Node

Network Control Node, which must be assigned on a Fusion network, manages other nodes on the network. This node has the Centralized-MAT to collect fault information from other nodes on the network. Multiple nodes cannot be assigned as a Network Control Node.

Local Node

All nodes other than Network Control Node are called Local Node. Fault information generated at a Local Node is sent to the Network Control Node via a Fusion Link, allowing the Network Control Node to collect the fault information. A Fusion network can have a maximum of 16 nodes on the network. (See Figure 2-6.)

Note: The actual number of nodes varies with system configurations.

Center Node (for Centralized Billing - Fusion)

This node collects the billing information from other nodes as well as the self-node. For this reason, the node is called Center Node for Centralized Billing - Fusion. Multiple Center Nodes can be assigned on the network by specifying the polling destinations, which can be set by the ASYDL command - SYS 1 Indexes 608 through 639. At the Center Node, the user can select “polling destinations” by setting 1 to the FPC of the corresponding nodes. For more information, see the NEAX2400 IMX Office Data Specification.

A Fusion network can have a maximum of 16 nodes.
