Connection Management Building Block
Connection Management enables the user to add, delete, view and edit
connections. The CMBB that is being introduced in this release of INM
Broadband migrates the CMBB which was introduced in the INA program
from DPE into CORBA based open contract interfaces.
The Connection Management Building Block provides CORBA open
interfaces to support functionalities such as Connection Provisioning,
Connection Inventory and Information, Termination Inventory and
Information, and BLSR automatic discovery of ADM inter-connections.
These features can also be accessed through the already existing GNB to
provide point-and-click Graphical User Interface to the user.
Fault Management Building Block
The Fault Management Building Block provides open, CORBA based contract
interfaces to client applications, and supports alarm queries, alarm
notifications, alarm counts and event notifications. It acts as the point of
contact to provide integrated alarm information over a network consisting of
Nortel SONET and ATM nodes.
The FMBB supports fault management services such as Discrete/Continuous
Alarm Retrieval and Event Retrieval on an Ongoing Basis.
These features can also be accessed through the already existing GNB to
provide point-and-click Graphical User Interface to the user.
Resource Management Building Block
The RMBB monitors the addition and deletion of network elements
throughout the controlled network. It provides a single point of access to
resource information in a network consisting of SONET and ATM nodes.
The Resource Management Building Block provides the capability for client
applications through the CORBA interface to provide configuration
management functionalities such as Network Element Query/Discovery,
Network Element Inventory and Termination provisioning capabilities on
SONET NEs.
These features can also be accessed through the already existing GNE and
GNB to provide point-and-click Graphical User Interface to the user.
