GARP
Generic Attribute Registration Protocol
Gateway Network Element (GNE)
Passes information between other network elements and management systems via a Data
Communications Network.
Gbit/s
Gigabits per second
Geographic Location
Location of the Lucent NMS server. The geographic location is entered as part of the
installation procedure of an NMS.
Geographic Redundancy (GR)
Allows protection of management for a network element by assigning the network
element to two OMSs. The first primary OMS usually manages the Network Element
and is now in the protected domain. If the primary OMS or the link between the network
element and the primary OMS fails, the secondary OMS will automatically take over
management of the network element and is now in the protecting domain. The two
OMSs are connected by a peer to peer link, which they use to pass Geographic
Redundancy management information to each other. This link must be established before
any network element can be protected by Geographic Redundancy.
GFP
Generic Framing Procedure
Global Wait to Restore Time
The time to wait before switching back to the timing reference occurs after a timing link
failure has cleared. This time applies for all timing sources in a system hence the name
global. This can be between 0 and 60 minutes, in increments of one minute.
GNE
Gateway network element - A network element that passes information between other
network elements and operations systems via a data communications network.
