Simple Network Management Protocol
The
Unable to show "metadata-from": No such page "_space_variables"
Platform is equipped with a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) agent that can connect with up to ten SNMP managers, or network management systems.
SNMP is part of the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) protocol suite. The SNMP is an application layer protocol that defines how management information between network devices is exchanged. The SNMP provides a means to monitor and control network devices.
An SNMP-managed network consists of the following three key components:
An SNMP Manager can manage and monitor a network device using
- traps which are unsolicited alarms from SNMP Agents that notify the system of significant events
- user interaction that allows you to actively view, add, delete, and modify attributes and events on the managed device. You can also use the Command Line Interface (CLI), Web UI, or TL1 to perform these tasks.
The
Unable to show "metadata-from": No such page "_space_variables"
Platform agents support Management Information Bases (MIBs) for monitoring various
Unable to show "metadata-from": No such page "_space_variables"
Platform devices, entities, and alarms, and includes a circular buffer to record (up to 2048) instances of the alarms. The default value is 1000. To set this value as required, refer to
Configuring the Trap Log. The MIB contains the performance and alarm data collected from the SS7 network.

Transaction Language 1
Transaction Language 1 (TL1) is a Man-Machine Language (MML) widely used in the telecommunications industry for the management of network elements. A computer terminal configured with any operating system capable of establishing a Telnet session is used to communicate with a network element using TL1 commands. TL1 commands are ASCII-based instructions that are entered by an operator at a computer terminal and sent to a network element. The network element sends back a response based on the instructions.
The
Unable to show "metadata-from": No such page "_space_variables"
Platform supports a customized Linux-based operating system and TL1 command capabilities. The TL1 commands are used to manage software application elements and parameters for this product.
For more information about TL1, refer to the appropriate chapter in the TL1 Reference Guide.
