System OA&M Capabilities Overview
Figure 2-2 Three Methods for OA&M Communications
AdminBrowser OA&M software runs on the Fusion Main Hub microprocessor and
communicates to its downstream RAUs. Using AdminBrowser, you can perform the
following:
• Configure a newly installed system
• Change system parameters
• Perform an end-to-end system test
• Query system status from any standard web browser (Internet Explorer) running
on your PC/laptop system.
Refer to the AdminBrowser User Manual (D-620607-0-20 Rev A) for information
about installing and using AdminBrowser software.
2.3.1 System Monitoring and Reporting
Each Fusion Hub in the system constantly monitors itself and its downstream RAUs
for internal fault and warning conditions. The results of this monitoring are stored in
memory and compared against new results.
When a Hub detects a change in status, it reports a fault or warning alarm. Faults are
also indicated locally by red status LEDs. Both faults and warnings are reported to
AdminBrowser software and displayed on a PC/laptop connected to the Hub’s RJ-45
port. Passive antennas connected to the RAUs are not monitored automatically. Per-
form a System Test to retrieve status information about antennas.
Using AdminBrowser, you can install a new system or new components, change sys-
tem parameters, and query system status. Figure 2-3 illustrates how the system
reports its status to AdminBrowser.
