COMSPHERE 6800 Series Network Management System

Analysis Network Management System

This section explains how to connect the Paradyne ANALYSIS Network Management System to the host processor. This feature is only supported on the Altos 5000 platform.

An IPC-900 card installed in the host processor provides the cut-through access to the ANALYSIS NMS. This is a dedicated IPC-900 card that is installed solely for ANALYSIS purposes. It has eight user-configurable ports. Port 1 is used to connect to the first ANALYSIS NMS. This port will handle alerts, cut-throughs, printer assignments and upload of device information. The other seven ports on the IPC card are available for connection to up to five other ANALYSIS Network Management Systems.

You can connect the ANALYSIS NMS either locally or remotely. The following sections explain.

NOTE

The port configuration on the ANALYSIS NMS must also be defined. This is done on the ANALYSIS NMS and is not discussed in this document. For more information, see the ANALYSIS 6510 Automated Network Management System Reference Manual. The ANALYSIS software must be Version 6.1. In addition, the NMS software must be activated and the ANALYSIS NMS must be configured into the system. Instructions for both these tasks can be found in Chapter 5, Loading and Restoring Software.

Connecting Locally

To connect a local ANALYSIS NMS to the host processor, you will need the following materials:

•035-0153-0031 cable

•002-0040-0031 connector (for ANALYSIS 6510/5605)

•A 002-0053-0031 connector (for ANALYSIS 5600)

Figure 4-25 illustrates a local connection for both the ANALYSIS 6510/5605 and ANALYSIS 5600 NMS. The following sections explain how to connect both systems locally.
