Element Manager
The cataloguing of network elements is a
key factor in the process of maintaining detailed information on the characteristics of all elements connected to the network.
NeaNMS characterizes network elements with a
wide variety of attributes including category, type, username, password, user group.
NeaNMS element manager features include:
- Full IP plan system
- Location attribute (with lat/long for georeference)
- Firmware and hardware version attributes
- Configuration management and archive
- Customizable tools for real-time interaction
- Custom inventory attributes
Network Manager
Network
reachability and
performance are always under control with NeaNMS.
NeaNMS verifies network nodes reachability as well as services availability, both in active mode, by
repeatedly polling the network elements, and in passive mode, by
listening to notifications (SNMP trap) from the elements themselves.
At the same time, NeaNMS gathers device and service
performance data (e.g.: network interfaces input/output traffic, CPU and memory usage, web server response time), making it available as graphic charts through the web-based console.
NeaNMS network manager features include:
- E-mail, SMS and custom action alerting
- Geomaps dynamic integration
- Customizable poller modules
- Polling based hierarchy
- Customizable threshold level
- Service level calculation and reports
Service Manager
As
unique feature that no other NMS can claim, NeaNMS Service Manager allows for the
provisioning and the service management provided on any telecommunications network thanks to the integrated
RADIUS server, used for the functionality of AAA (
Authentication, Authorization, Accounting), controlled and managed through a powerful console.
Among our service manager characterics you can find:
- Subscriber profiling
- Subscriber traffic billing (prepaid/postpaid)
- Prepaid scratch card management
- Subscriber connections reports
- Roaming management
- Subscriber portal
Load Balancing and Failover
All NeaNMS features are compliant with HA (High Availability) configurations. The polling engine is also capable of working in load-balancing configuration, in order to share the workload over server pools for carrier-class solutions.
Trouble Ticketing
The system includes a trouble-ticket / task management module which can be integrated with the Fault and Performance Management notification.
Multi-User Console Access
Console access can be customized by creating hierarchical groups in order to manage sub-users, allowing for the visibility of single portions of the network or only of certain sections of the console itself.
DNS Management
For the purpose of information consistency, DNS can also be aligned with the network elements and network interfaces inventory.
NeaNMS creates the complete DNS zones for all the catalogued domains and subnets, making them available for the zone transfer process.
Full FCAPS compliance
NeaNMS is the first Network Management System which is functionally fully compliant with the FCAPS ISO Telecommunications Management Network model and framework for network management. FCAPS is an acronym for Fault, Configuration, Accounting, Performance, Security, the management categories into which the ISO model defines network management tasks.
