The term
is used when referring to functionality that is common to the
Domain Managers:
- for SONET/SDH
- Optical Transport Manager for PDH (low order SONET/SDH)
- for WDM
- Optical Transport Manager for WM-NGThe functions of SONET/SDH, PDH, and WDM Domain Managers are divided between two servers:
- Topology Server
- Analysis ServerCurrently only one Topology Server with one Analysis Server is supported for SONET/SDH, PDH, and WDM. Splitting these functions allows the OTM Domain Servers to improve scalability to larger optical networks.The topology and analysis functions are combined in the WDM-NG server. WDM-NG works with the SolutionPack for Optical Wavelength Services and the EMC M&R platform to collect data from EMS systems that support TMF 864. The SolutionPack for Optical Wavelength Services Summary Sheetarticle provides more information.In addition to the Domain Managers, works in conjunction with:
- Global Manager and Global Console, both part of the .
- EMC M&R, the SolutionPacks for Optical Wavelength Services, and the SolutionPack for Smarts.This section describes in more detail the functions of the various components of .
