Network assessment offer
Network Analysis Network Optimization (NANO)
Network Assessment for IP Telephony solutions. The NANO takes information gathered
from the CIRS, performs problem diagnosis and provides functional requirements for the
network to implement Avaya IP Telephony.
A NANO is required when the CIRS indicates that the customer's network as it is configured
cannot support the proposed IP Telephony application at the desired performance levels.
Sometimes customers already know that their existing network is not configured to support
Avaya IP Telephony, and they can order a NANO without first completing a CIRS. The
assessment requires that the customer complete a CIRS-like analysis as the first phase).
Customers may also request a NANO to optimize their network.

Customer Infrastructure Readiness Survey (CIRS)

The CIRS offer is a scheduled remote network evaluation that is valuable for all customers that
are expanding of their communication capabilities.
The CIRS evaluates the customer's current network environment by
Maximizing the available resources.
Identifying additional resources that are required to support the proposed IP Solution.
The outcome of the CIRS is a road map that identifies the gaps in the existing network today,
but it does not provide step-by-step configuration instructions on how to deploy the solution.
The CIRS is performed remotely and must be scheduled with the NCS team 2 weeks before
implementing Avaya IP Telephony.
What if my network functions well today?
Even if your network appears to perform acceptably, IP Telephony taxes network resources and
performance because IP Telephony requires dedicated bandwidth and is more sensitive to
network problems than data applications.
