While provisioning network infra -
structure or services, network oper -
ators now have visualization and
diagnostic tools at their fingertips
that allow them to identify what
is causing provisioning fall-outs.
For example, should an LSP fail to
become operational, the network
operator can verify that all IP and
MPLS protocols are opera tional, and
use path computations with different
parameters to identify whether the
lack of available bandwidth is caus-
ing the problem.
In short, whether solving provi -
sioning fall-outs, service failures or
proactively detecting control plane
issues, the Alcatel-Lucent 5650
CPAM offers a range of features
that enable routing architects and
network operators to link service
and control plane management
and simplify IP/MPLS operations
