Avaya Network Management applications
Issue 1 June 2010 17
console application on a workstation and remote monitoring probes in network devices that
support SMON.
The Avaya SMON Manager console constantly communicates with the SMON devices on your
network. The console uses SNMP to gather information from the devices. The Avaya SMON
Manager provides a suite of powerful graphic display tools to view this information.
The Avaya SMON Manager provides you with detailed analysis of the traffic flow on your
switched network, from a global view down to a specific host, and from total MAC layer traffic
down to a specific application protocol — all in real-time.
SMON monitoring provides the following information:
- A global view of traffic for all switches on the network.
- An overall view of traffic passing through a specific switch.
- Detailed data about the hosts transmitting packets or cells through a switch.
- An analysis of traffic passing through each port connected to a switch.
Avaya Provisioning and Installation Manager for Media Gateways
The Avaya Provisioning and Installation Manager provides the capability to remotely configure
Avaya media gateways on a network-wide basis. It provides integrated network system views
that ease centralized configuration tasks, especially provisioning and installing large numbers of
gateways simultaneously.
Using wizards that prompt you for required information, the Provisioning and Installation
Manager enables you to:
- Create templates and device profiles to use later.
- Import and export device profiles and templates.
- Save templates and device profiles with a completed status or incomplete status
where non-required information can be added at a later time.
- Copy configuration templates and device profiles to create placeholders for different
parameters.
- Create a template from scratch or import data from an electronic pre-installation
worksheet (EPW).
- Distribute a template through bulk provisioning to a group of devices.
- Send a profile to a device and make a choice to distribute now, schedule for a later, or
make pending.
- Configure G250, G350, G430, and G450 media gateways with Standard Local
Survivability (SLS) updates that include parameters such as automatic route selection
(ARS) rules and dial plans. Survivability provides basic call processing controller
functionality in the event that a main controller or LSP is unavailable.
