T1 system, DS0 with RS232 conversion, or other medium. Cables and equipment (not provided)
to support the RS-232 interface connection between the EMS computer and the NOC interface
are required.
The SNMP interface connection between the EMS computer and the SNMP manager requires
that the EMS computer be equipped with an Ethernet port. The link between the EMS computer
and a network SNMP manager would generally be supported by a Local Area Network (LAN).
Cables and equipment (not provided) to support the connection between the EMS computer and
the LAN are required.
5.5 Digivance Software User Interfaces
The Digivance EMS provides three software user interfaces: the EMS Graphical User Interface
(GUI), the Network Operation Center–Network Element Manager (NOC/NEM) interface, and
the SNMP interface. The EMS GUI, the NOC interface, and the SNMP interface provide the
same basic functions. However, the NOC interface and the SNMP interface cannot be used to
download new system software to the Digivance system. In addition, the SNMP interface
cannot be used to assign a system site number to a HU/RU pair during installation.
The EMS GUI is used for local control and monitoring operations. The EMS GUI consists of a
series of displays and screens, such as the one shown in Figure 2-8, that provide the user with
alarm and status information and that allow the user to set various operating parameters.
Directives are implemented by pointing and clicking on the desired action and also by entering
text in various dialog boxes. Refer to the Digivance Element Management System User Manual
(see Related Publications section) for additional information.
