DDM-2000 FiberReach Release 3.0 and later is developed to be compatible with
any other-vendor NEs that also support TARP, OSI, and TL1/X.25 as specified in
Telcordia Technologies GR-253. In addition, DDM-2000’s TARP Manual
Adjacency feature enables DDM-2000 to operate in networks that include CMISE-
based NEs which may not support TARP propagation.
DDM-2000’s compatibility with Tellabs’
TITAN
*
5500/S R5.0 DCS, including TL1/
X.25 OS access with TITAN 5500/S DCS serving as the TL1/X.25 GNE, has been
confirmed through cooperative joint testing. DDM-2000’s compatibility with some
other-vendor NEs has also been tested by independent third-parties such as
Telcordia Technologies.
Because DDM-2000 FiberReach 3.0/3.1 releases are intended to facilitate OS-
based centralized operations, and because TL1/X.25 OS access is the key
standardized multi-vendor OI application, the following Remote NE Status
features are not supported in DDM-2000 FiberReach Releases 3.0/3.1:
■
Remote office alarms
■
Remote CIT alarm reports
■
Remote user panel indications
■
TBOS
■
Parallel telemetry.
All of the above features depend on the proprietary exchange of information
among Lucent NEs in a subnetwork, specifically the communication of each
remote NE’s alarm status to other NEs. Although the Remote NE Status features
were supported in previous releases of DDM-2000, such Lucent-only operations
features in multi-vendor subnetworks would not include other-vendor NEs, due to
the lack of applicable standards, and thus would be incomplete.
DDM-2000 FiberReach Release 4.0 supports the following Remote NE Status
features:
■
Remote office alarms
■
Remote CIT alarm reports.
