5620 SAM Release 5.0 introduced the concept of the 5620 SAM Auxiliary Statistics Collector also known as the 5620 SAM Auxiliary. The 5620 SAM Auxiliary collects and processes performance and accounting statistics. This option enables customers to reduce the load of statistics collection from the 5620 SAM Server while allowing for increased statistics collection capabilities. A 5620 SAM Auxiliary workstation should be used when statistics collection is expected to exceed the capacity of the 5620 SAM Server.

Technical ReferenceSee 5620 SAM R7.0Technical Guide Section 6. Hardware Platform [Inserted Planning Reference] Requirements for scalability details of the 5620 SAM Server and dimensioning of the 5620 SAM Auxiliary workstation. The 5620 SAM Server directs the operation of the 5620 SAM Auxiliary and distributes the processing load to them as required. This distributed functionality is invisible to 5620 SAM GUI and OSS clients because they interact only with the 5620 SAM Server. The 5620 SAM Server sends new or updated operating information, for example, the 5620 SAM license capacity, redundancy status, and database credentials, to each auxiliary server as the information becomes available. The 5620 SAM Server and the 5620 SAM Auxiliary workstation must maintain consistent and accurate time. It is encouraged to use an NTP service to achieve this. An alarm will be raised if the times are not within 30 seconds. Variations in time can cause the system to stop collecting statistics prematurely. In networks where 5620 SAM Auxiliary workstations are not configured, the 5620 SAM Server handles the statistics collection. In networks where the 5620 SAM Auxiliary is configured, the 5620 SAM Server will never collect statistics regardless of the availability of the 5620 SAM Auxiliary workstations. At least one 5620 SAM Auxiliary workstations must be available for statistics collection to occur.


5620 SAM Auxiliary [Cont.]The 5620 SAM Auxiliary is only supported with a distributed 5620 SAM Server and 5620 SAM Database. The Switch to notes view! 5620 SAM Server and database platforms must be running Solaris on either a Sun SPARC or Sun AMD platform. 5620 SAM Auxiliary Server: In a 5620 SAM system that is deployed using distributed server architecture, a 5620 SAM server instance on a dedicated station that accepts processing requests from, and is directed by, a 5620 SAM main server. A main server and one or more auxiliary servers that are in communication are collectively called a 5620 SAM server cluster. 5620 SAM Main Server: A server instance in the 5620 SAM distributed server architecture that directs one or more 5620 SAM auxiliary servers and interacts with 5620 SAM clients. The term is meaningful only in the context of a distributed 5620 SAM server deployment; the term 5620 SAM server applies to a single server instance in a non-distributed 5620 SAM deployment. A main server and one or more auxiliary servers that are in communication are collectively called a 5620 SAM server cluster.

High Availability (Redundancy)Fault tolerance is important in carrier networks to provide the reliability expected by customers and to maintain system availability even under failure conditions. This is achieved on the 5620 SAM using software and hardware redundancy. The 5620 SAM duplicates both server and database hardware and software and monitors active and backup components to ensure automatic recovery from failure. The 5620 SAM protects the server from any point of failure in the server or database software or the server and database hardware platform, and from connectivity problems that isolate a server from the network. Duplication of the network connection to the 5620 SAM server can also be achieved using the in-band and out-of-band management connections to protect against problems in the link between the server and the managed network.


Architecture OverviewThe 5620 SAM supports IP/MPLS-based network convergence by providing subscriber services such as VLL, Switch to notes view! VPLS, VPRN, IES, and VLAN over a common network infrastructure. The 5620 SAM allows network operators to manage their networks at the service, customer, and subscriber levels. The 5620 SAM software architecture is built on industry standards including open standards such as SOAP and XML, the Java and J2EE framework, multi-tier layering, and web service interfaces. This use of standard interfaces allows the 5620 SAM to integrate with other network management systems such as the 5620 NM and the 5750 SSC, to add management of IP/MPLS and metro Ethernet services to multiservice networks.

BenefitsOpen standards, and the multi-tier and web service models provide many benefits. Open standards are widely used. Their inclusion in 5620 SAM promotes interoperability with other systems. The large industry knowledge base of developers also means that more resources are available to create new services The multi-tier model packages functionality in separate, well-defined elements that can be coded quickly, easily maintained, and combined with different vendor product components. The scope of system changes are contained within components, which provides flexibility for future growth. To improve performance and scalability, different components can be spread over multiple processors or duplicated for multiprocessor execution. Web services are created when applications export their XML interfaces over the web, which allow remote components, including web portals, to Reserved Alcatel-Lucent 2009 access the services. The XML access to 5620 SAM All Rights 1 2 13 functionality allows third-party vendors to create customized windows into 5620 SAM services.

Network Management CapabilitiesThe 5620 SAM network manager provides flexible network access, thereby allowing users to interact with the network on a service or subscriber basis, or at the level of individual devices. The ability of the 5620 SAM to link subscribers, customers, services, equipment, and faults allows efficient management of complex networks by simplifying daily operations. The 5620 SAM provides this flexible capability by creating a data model of the network with relationships between subscribers, services, and equipment. The server collects data and traps from managed devices, and can correlate the data to allow billing, performance monitoring, troubleshooting, and inventory and alarm reporting at the service or subscriber level. The server also deploys user commands to the network, and performs autonomous functions such as node discovery and backups.

In customer networks where the statistics collection requirements exceed the scalability capabilities of a 5620. SAM Server, a 5620 SAM Auxiliary Statistics Collector can be used. As with other high availability components, 5620 SAM Auxiliary can be configured to be redundant. Each 5620 SAM Server can be configured to have one preferred and one reserved 5620 SAM Auxiliary. In the figure above, there are 2 workstations that are configured as 5620 SAM Auxiliary workstations. The role of the 5620 SAM Auxiliary is dependant and configured on the 5620 SAM Server that is active. In both geographic locations, the 5620 SAM Server would consider the 5620 SAM Auxiliary in its geographic location to be the preferred. The 5620 SAM Auxiliary in the opposite geographic location would be considered to be reserved. In this scenario, if the 5620 SAM Auxiliary for the active 5620 SAM Server were to no longer be available, the active 5620 SAM Server would use the reserved 5620 SAM Auxiliary in the opposite geographic location to collect statistics.

5620 SAM Release 7.0 uses the number of MDAs as the fundamental unit of network dimensioning. To determine the current or eventual size of a network, the number of deployed or expected MDAs, as opposed to the capacity of each router, must be calculated. The table above provides the scalability limits for 5620 SAM Release 7.0. To achieve these scale limits, a distributed Solaris configuration is required, and may also require a 5620 SAM Auxiliary Statistics Collector and a storage array for the 5620 SAM database workstation. Consult Alcatel-Lucent personnel to ensure you have the correct hardware platform and configuration for your network size. For networks which contain, or are expected to contain, 7250 SAS or Telco T5C CLE equipment, the number of managed MDAs can be obtained by adding 2 MDAs for each 7250 SAS or Telco T5C elements in the network to the current or expected number of MDAs on 7750 SR routers and 7450 ESS switches. For OmniSwitch 6850, each shelf in the stackable chassis is equivalent to 1 MDA for scaling guidelines.

The 5620 SAM simplifies network provisioning by allowing you to discover devices and reconcile them to the 5620 SAM database for management. Network element discovery is executed via SNMP. During the discovery process, the 5620 SAM scans the network for devices according to user-defined IP addresses or IP address ranges. When the IP address used to discover the device is the system IP address, also known as the system ID, management is considered in-band. When the IP address used to discover the device is the IP address of the device management port, management is considered out-of-band. When a device is discovered, the 5620 SAM sets the device in a managed state and reconciles device elements into the 5620 SAM database. To discover devices, you use the Discovery Manager to create one or more discovery rules, choose a discovery rule, and scan the network as specified by the rule. Discovery rules contain rule elements. Rule elements specify which devices or subnets are to be included in or excluded from the discovery process. A discovery rule can contain more than one rule element. For example, you can configure one rule element to discover a subnet, and configure another rule element to exclude specific IP addresses from the subnet.

For example, when a card is added to a node, the server data model is updated, and the card configuration commands are sent to the node. Network configuration is supported for Multi-protocol Label Switching (MPLS), Label Switched Paths (LSPs), and service tunnels, as well as routing protocols such as Routing Information Protocol (RIP), Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), and Intermediate System to Intermediate System (IS-IS). These configurations are requested by clients and deployed to the network. New nodes can be discovered by a user request or automatically through server polls. When a new node is discovered, it is added to the data model and set to a managed state.

As of Release 4.0, the 5620 SAM made possible for network designers to expand the integration of network elements into the remotely managed network through the introduction of Generic Network Elements. Generic Network Elements, also referred to as Generic NE or GNE, are any SNMP- manageable device other than the 7710 or 7x50 series of routers and switches (e.g., Sun Workstation, Alcatel-Lucent 7670 RSP, Alcatel-Lucent 7470 MSP, Cisco router, Juniper router). The 5620 SAM provides limited management of GNEs which includes: the ability to plot the GNE, create physical links to the device, monitor the device status (up or down), perform direct cut-through for telnet/ SSH, and to send CLI scripts to the Generic NE. There are three (3) main steps to discover then manage a Generic NE: create a Generic NE Profile for each device to be managed create a Mediation Security Policy for the specific nodes to be managed, and create a Discovery Rule that will be used to discover the node(s)

Fault management occurs in response to traps triggered in the managed network. SNMP traps are sent to the 5620 SAM server, which converts them to status updates and alarms against the appropriate equipment and services. Traps include hardware faults on equipment. Traps may be sent for many reasons; for example, managed device configuration or operational state changes, or security breach attempts. These traps are passed to clients immediately if they have registered for a JMS event channel, or later when a client polls the server. The fault management system provides: conversion of SNMP traps of device events to many X.733-ISO Standard alarm fields (Critical, Major, Minor, Warning, Intermediate, Cleared) impact analysis and correlation of alarms to equipment and serviceaffecting faults updated operational status of equipment, services, and interfaces in near-real-time from the network device resources alarm policy control by network administrators so the administrators can determine how to handle individual incoming alarms and how alarm logs are created and stored point-and-click alarm management from both the dynamic alarm list and from equipment and services configured on the 5620 SAM GUI operator notes and acknowledgement to track the work undertaken to fix the problem that caused the alarm, and correlated data in a historical alarm database to provide trend analysis and records

The network management capabilities of the 5620 SAM allow network operations staff to provision the Internal Gateway Protocols (IGP), including: static routes, RIP, Open Shortest path First v2 (OSPFv2) , OSPFv3 and IS-IS, as well as the BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) used for L3 VPN (VPRN) services. The MPLS network can then be tracked for performance monitoring, billing, inventory, reporting, and alarms. Network Operations staff can track the managed network data from SNMP traps, billing and traffic analysis data, and SNMP MIB performance data. The data is rolled-up and correlated using the data model and business logic on the server.

MPLS ManagementThe MPLS management capabilities of the 5620 SAM allow network operations staff to provision the MPLS network including: static and dynamic Label Switched Paths (LSPs) to support services for subscribers. The MPLS network can then be tracked for performance monitoring, billing, inventory, reporting, and alarms.

Service ManagementThe service management capabilities of the 5620 SAM allow network operations staff to provision VLL, VPLS, IES, VPRN, or VLAN services for subscribers. These service networks can then be tracked for performance monitoring, billing, inventory, reporting, and alarms. Network Operations staff can track the managed network data from SNMP traps, billing and traffic analysis data, and SNMP MIB performance data. The data is rolled-up and correlated using the data model and business logic on the server.

OverviewThe 5620 SAM supports the configuration of VLL, VPLS, IES, VLAN, mirror, and VPRN services using XML API script-based templates. The templates allow users to define common characteristics for a service or templatable service object, and the parameter values that can be configured. Only users who are assigned the mirror service management scope of command role can create, modify, delete, or view mirror services and mirror service templates. Only users that are assigned the template management scope of command role can create, modify, or delete XML API templates. Users can create XML API configuration templates for services and child objects of services, and include sites, access interfaces, SDP bindings, group interfaces, and other service-related objects. The 5620 SAM generates an XML API script with Velocity properties which must be modified to generate a UI for the configuration form that is tailored to the users requirements and to NE-specific properties and attributes. Service templates in the 5620 SAM, as of Release 6.0, are based on XML API configuration scripts. XML API service configuration templates simplify service object creation by reducing the number of steps required to create a service or service component. Users can use an existing valid service as a starting point for the creation of an XML API service configuration template or create a template without using a managed service object as a basis.


Service Templates [Cont.]Manage Service Templates Service Templates Form



Users can create, modify, or delete XML API service configuration templates using the form accessed by selecting Manage Service Templates. The form allows one to view all templates for services, sites, and templatable children network objects. Users can also use the form to convert standard service templates that were created in earlier releases to XML API service templates. A service template can use secondary, or child, templates to further define the configuration details for the created service. Templates for sites can be bound to the service template. Network objects, such as SDP bindings and interfaces, are considered child templates which can be bound to the site template. Unlike in previous releases, only site templates can be bound to service templates. When a user creates an XML API configuration template for a service, one can choose to create templates for child objects of the service and to bind the child templates to the service template. Users can bind a child template to multiple parent templates. For example, a site template can be bound to several service templates. Users must convert standard service templates that were created using Release 5.0 and earlier of the 5620 SAM to XML API service templates. All the child templates that are bound to the service templates are automatically converted when the service template is converted to an XML API configuration template. The association of the service template with service objects that may have been created using the template in Release 5.0 and earlier of the 5620 SAM is maintained after the service template has been converted. Since the 5620 SAM, Release 5.0 and earlier, does not support an association between site templates, SDP binding templates, or access interface templates with network objects that were created from the templates, no association is maintained after the conversion. Alcatel-Lucent recommends that users convert old service templates to XML API configuration template only one time. If a template is converted that has already been converted, a new template is generated. However, the association of templated objects such as serviceswith the original template is removed and associated with the newly converted template.


Velocity GUI BuilderGUI Builder Selection Button



The Velocity GUI Builder allows users to easily create the XML content for the velocity properties. It allows the user to specify all property types and configure them through a GUI. The builder is opened through the script editor, and can be used to create or edit the velocity properties, or test the generated UI. Under the versions tab of a script, select Add to create the script. A button is available in the script editor to launch the GUI builder. As part of the Service Templates capabilities of the 5620 SAM Release 6.0, the GUI Builder allows GUI based locking, default setting and bounds setting extends service template philosophy to general templates. It provides support for output format scripts greatly improving the potential look and feel of customer scripts.

The 5620 SAM provides the capability for extensive policy management grouped into three main categories: Service Management Policies, Routing management Policies and Network Management Policies. This feature provides the network operator or administrator the ability to create up to 131,000 management policies from the 5620 SAM to be applied to the network elements, as required. Policies created in the 5620 SAM are referred to as Global policies. Once a Global Policy is assigned to an object on a network element, the configuration of that policy will be deployed to the device and is referred to as a Local policy.

SynchronizeShould an operator make changes to a local policy via CLI, the modifications will not result in a change to the Global Policy. Instead, a warning will be raised on the modified Local policy at which time the network operator or administrator may initiate a policy synchronization. The Synchronize button will trigger a synchronization of the global policy with the selected local policy. Modification of a Global Policy configuration via the 5620 SAM shall result in an updates in upgrades to the configuration of all corresponding Local policies and thus an update to the configuration of those policies on the associated network elements.

Policy AuditThe Policy Audit is used to compare every Local policy with the corresponding Global policy. Alarms will be raised on the Local policy to indicate a mismatch.

The 5620 SAM provides the capability to monitor services and resources using performance monitoring statistics, alarms, and diagnostic and troubleshooting tools. Performance monitoring and accounting statistics collection are performed on the 5620 SAM using serviceand equipment-related statistics counters from the managed devices. There are two types of statistics collected: accounting statistics for SAPs (Service Access Points), SDPs (Service Distribution Paths) and network ports which can be used for billing and traffic-analysis purposes, and network object performance statistics, for control plane, data forwarding plane, and device utilization statistics Performance statistics are collected regularly by server polls of the managed devices. Changes to network performance statistics, which are in MIB format on the managed devices, are uploaded to the server using SNMP.

AccountingAccounting statistics for billing records and traffic analysis are generated and stored on the managed devices. They are collected and transferred to the 5620 SAM server using FTP or Secure Copy Protocol (SCP).

The 5620 SAM provides network operations staff with an extensive suite of diagnostic tools for fault analysis and localization. These tools include Medium Access Control (MAC) ping, Virtual Circuit Connection Verification (VCCV) ping for Virtual Leased Line (VLL) services, Domain Name System (DNS) ping for name resolution, LSP ping and traceroute, and Virtual Private Routed Network (VPRN) ping. Connectivity tests can be made on SDPs and SDP bindings, and service connectivity tests can ensure service functionality at configuration time. Pinging of management IP addresses can determine when managed devices become unreachable from the server. Service mirroring enables the network diagnostics staff to redirect data from any service within the network to a centralized monitoring point for network and data analysis without impacting customer data flow. This service can be configured to filter data based upon L2 to L7(1) information.

Note(1)

An Application Assurance (AA) MDA is required to filter at L7.

The 5620 SAM Service Test Manager (STM) system provides the ability to group various OAM tests into test suites for network troubleshooting and for verifying compliance with SLAs. You can schedule the execution of a test suite to provide continual performance feedback, or run a test suite on demand to investigate service issues. The 5620 SAM archives test-result data for monitoring and trend analysis. The grouping of tests into a test suite allows a 5620 SAM operator to use one schedule for the periodic execution of multiple OAM diagnostics against multiple network objects; for example, services, devices, or network transport components. An operator can choose to include existing tests, use the 5620 SAM to generate the tests that comprise a test suite, or both. Groups of tests in a suite can be configured to execute sequentially or concurrently. Threshold-cr
