5 Alcatel-Lucent 5650 Control Plane Assurance Manager
The 5620 SAM allows operators to
focus on managing services. It intel -
ligently correlates corresponding
network objects and the effect of
their status on service delivery. This
service management model provides
multi-technol ogy and multi-layer
service provisioning, service alarm
management, service/customer
impact analysis, auto-generated
service test suite and service media-
tion (service statistics, alarms, inven-
tory and provisioning) for operation
support systems (OSS).
By fully integrating the 5650 CPAM’s
control plane management capability with
the 5620 SAM’s leading element, network
and service management, Alcatel-Lucent
offers a next generation management
model that meets service provider’s
expectation of a carrier class IP/MPLS
management solution.
To take carrier class network and
service management to the next
level, service providers need the
ability to pro-actively manage the
intelligent protocols that make
routing decisions that are invisible
to the management plane.
With the addition of the 5650
CPAM, Alcatel-Lucent closes
that remaining management gap
by offering proac tive control plane
surveillance, validation, diagnosis
and seamless integration with
the 5620 SAM’s comprehen sive
service and MPLS infrastructure
management tools.
