CHAPTER 1
System Operation and Configuration
The ASR 5500 is designed to provide subscriber management services for Mobile Packet Core networks.
Before you connect to the command line interface (CLI) and begin system configuration, you must understand
how the system supports these services. This chapter provides terminology and background information to
consider before you configure the system.

System Management Overview
ASR 5500 management capabilities reflect the requirements of the Telecommunications Management Network
(TMN) model for network element (NE) and element management system (EMS) functions. The system also
supports external element management applications via standards-based protocols (CORBA and SNMPv1,
v2). Wireless operators can readily integrate the ASR 5500 into their overall network, service, and business
management systems. All management is performed out-of-band for security and to maintain system
performance.
