Information About Management and Collection
Service Configuration Management
Service configuration management is the ability to configure the general service definitions of a service
control application. A service configuration file containing settings for traffic classification, accounting
and reporting, and control is created and applied to an SCE platform. The SCA BB application provides
tools to automate the distribution of these configuration files to SCE platforms. This simple,
standards-based approach makes it easy to manage multiple devices in a large network.
Service Control provides an easy-to-use GUI to edit and create these files and a complete set of APIs to
automate their creation.
Data Collection
The Cisco Service Control solution generates usage data and statistics from the SCE platform and
forwards them as Raw Data Records (RDRs), using a simple TCP-based protocol (RDR-Protocol). The
Cisco Service Control Management Suite (SCMS) Collection Manager (CM) software implements the
collection system, listening in on RDRs from one or more SCE platforms and processing them on the
local machine. The data is then stored for analysis and reporting functions, and for the collection and
presentation of data to additional OSS systems such as billing.
