| ECI Telecom Enhances its Multi-Layer Network Management System ECI Telecom has announced a new feature set for its carrier-class network management system, LightSoft V3. LightSoft V3 provides a multi-dimensional approach to management, giving carriers the ability to view and administer their entire infrastructure of converged Optical, Ethernet and SONET/SDH networks. By managing multiple layers from a single system, LightSoft V3 enhances carriers' ability to easily and efficiently manage and optimize their networks, while reducing OPEX. LightSoft V3 support of a Northbound interface allows for performance monitoring, provisioning, maintenance and integration into standard market-leading operation support systems. In addition, the highly-scalable LightSoft V3 supports fifty concurrent users, while the system works in high availability clusters and manages thousands of network elements and hundreds of thousands of network paths. LightSoft can also manage other vendors' element management systems. Optimized for ECI's XDM optical and MSPP platform, LightSoft provides full control over the entire network, limiting the amount of necessary deployed systems. Other solutions in the market are limited in that they manage EMS and require a separate system for each type of network like SDH, Optical or Ethernet. LightSoft Version 3.0 will be commercially available in early 2007. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Networking News :: home page |
