Network Management

The Cisco service control solution provides complete network Fault, Configuration, Accounting,
Performance, Security (FCAPS) Management.
Two interfaces provide network management:
•
•
Subscriber Management
Where the Cisco service control application for broadband (SCA BB) enforces policies on different
subscribers and tracks usage on an individual subscriber basis, the Cisco service control management
suite (SCMS) subscriber manager (SM) may be used as middleware software for bridging between OSS
and SCE platforms. Subscriber information is stored in the SM database and can be distributed between
multiple platforms according to actual subscriber placement.
The SM provides subscriber awareness by mapping network IDs to subscriber IDs. It can obtain
subscriber information using dedicated integration modules that integrate with AAA devices, such as
RADIUS or DHCP servers.
Subscriber information may be obtained in one of two ways:

Command-line interface (CLI)—Accessible through the Console port or through a Telnet
connection, the CLI is used for configuration and security functions.
SNMP—Provides fault management (through SNMP traps) and performance-monitoring
functionality.
Push Mode—The SM pushes subscriber information to the SCE platform automatically upon logon
of a subscriber.
Pull Mode—The SM sends subscriber information to the SCE platform in response to a query from
the SCE platform.
