Optimizing Networks with Money Saving Features of the NETSMART® 1500 Network Management System
●The NETSMART 1500 NMS software centralizes the management of all Fujitsu SONET and DWDM transport solutions. The software empowers carriers to reduce their network operating expenses by reducing the time and complexity associated with day-to-day maintenance procedures. These maintenance procedures, such as loading new software into SONET or DWDM NEs, can be labor-intensive and therefore costly and potentially prone to human error. The NETSMART 1500 NMS software supports the transition from a distributed network model, where each central office performs its own maintenance and provisioning, to a centralized network model, where significant cost savings and service quality improvements can be realized.
●A recent study by Fujitsu revealed that substantial OPEX reductions are easily realized by using NETSMART 1500 software for typical tasks such as:
■ Provisioning new circuits and connections
■ Downloading software and backing up NE database
■ Managing NE security
■ Implementing PCNs
■ Retrieval of performance monitoring data from NEs
●By centralizing many typical maintenance and operational functions, Fujitsu demonstrates that operational expenses can be reduced while significantly increasing network survivability and security. Each carrier, and sometimes each individual network, operates differently, providing unique opportunities to improve efficiency. Yet, these functions are fairly common to all networks and can be quantified in a standard way to begin understanding how a management system can help reduce costs.
●All carriers, despite unique network configurations, can optimize many operational functions. An unquantifiable aspect of network management also exists—persistent surveillance of the network and real- time information about the status of network bandwidth and performance. When combined, the savings and enhanced reliability of network operations using NETSMART 1500 software are tremendous.
