Management Systems

The end-to-end IP-based architecture of the system enables full management of
all components, from any point in the system. The devices can be managed using
standard management tools through SNMP agents that implement standard and
proprietary MIBs for remote setting of operational modes and parameters. The
same SNMP management tools can also be used to manage other system
components including switches, routers and transmission equipment. Security
features incorporated in the units restrict access for management purposes to
specific IP addresses and/or directions, that is, from the Ethernet and/or wireless
link.
In addition, the Ethernet WAN can be used to connect to other Operation Support
Systems including servers, Customer Care systems and AAA (Authentication,
Authorization and Admission) tools.
