INM Broadband Release 3.1

Issue 1.0

login is implemented for MOA based Controllers (as opposed to OPCs).
The user could potentially open any number of login sessions consuming
more and more resources and ultimately affecting performance of other
functionality. The user has to take note of this limitation and ensure to keep
the number of open sessions per GNB session, at any time to 6.

 9. Fault Management

1

The OPC collects OPC alarms all the time. Turning the pointer alarm on
triggers the NE to raise the corresponding Pointer Alarm. The Pointer
Alarm is a “pointer to the OPC alarm monitor which contains actual OPC
alarms”. The OPC alarms are still shown even though the Pointer Alarm is
de-provisioned.

 10. Connection Management

1

When the user selects the Edit command from the nodal object menu in the
middle of building an end-to-end connection for the OC3 Express, there is
no dialog presented to confirm if the user wants to abandon the NE
navigation mode. Therefore, if the user selects the Edit command from the
nodal object menu, he is placed into an Edit connection mode right away.

2

When editing an STS-3c connection on an OC-12 TBM MUX system, the
user will always get a failure message indicating that the data could not be
applied to the NE.  This error message can be misleading if the edit was
actually successful. There is no workaround for this problem. The user
should use the audit facilities to check if the edit was successful.

3

When 2 Connection Management windows (from 2 GNBs) are opened for
the same OC-3 Express NE and if connections are modified from the craft
interface simultaneously, the connection changes made at the craft
interface are not captured in the Connection Management inventory
displays. Both Connection Management windows have to be closed and
re-opened in order to see the connections. The OC-3 Express Network
Element does not provide an automatic change notification.

4

While in-service roll over is being performed at the OPC the channels
involved in the roll over (i.e the ones that are being rolled over from and
the ones being rolled over to) should be marked used in both directions in
the INM Channel Usage dialog.  At the moment for the Bridge and Switch
stages of the in-service roll over only one direction is marked used. The
user may be misled into thinking the channels are available for uni
directional connections when in fact they are not.  If the user then tries to
provision the connection, then the OPC will reject it. The dialog that comes
up does not tell him the reason for rejecting this connection.

 11. Remote Inventory and Shelf Level Graphics

1

When the Query inventory dialog is opened and the user wants to select
individual NEs from the “confine search to” area and if there is a large
number of NEs in the span so that he has to scroll down the NE list, then
if the user checks or unchecks any of the NEs except the first one, the
