9 Typical BIMS applications
The following scenarios are provided to help you better understand how BIMS is typically applied to aid
in network management.
Prerequisites of BIMS applications
Before starting any BIMS procedures in the following scenarios, make sure you have:
• Installed and configured the IMC base platform and BIMS service components. The IMC platform
works as your network management system.
• Established administrator access to the IMC base platform.
• Verified that the CPEs to be deployed and managed by BIMS support the TR-069 protocol.
Example 1: Deploying CPE configurations in a data
center through a BIMS zero-configuration
deployment solution
Scenario description
As a data center network administrator, you must manage a large number of access switches supporting
the CWMP protocol, and other complicated services. You use IMC BIMS to centrally manage and
deploy various types of these CPE devices. To unify your access CPE device management, you deploy
similar device models with the same startup configurations.
Next, you are assigned to perform a network expansion plan, which requires adding a batch of CPE
devices. These CPEs are the same model—HP 5820, and act as the same level access devices. You use
the BIMS zero-configuration CPE deployment solution to automatically deploy a startup configuration file
to the CPE devices, greatly increasing your efficiency and reducing your workload.
The network topology of the CPE devices for this example is shown in
Figure 15 .
