Attaining End-to-End Service Level Management With Cisco Active Network Abstraction

Overview With Cisco Active Network Abstraction (ANA) software, Cisco Systems delivers a radical new approach for managing service provider networks. Cisco ANA creates a virtualized, service-oriented network model that reflects the near-real-time state of every network element and maintains an end-to-end view of the entire network regardless of vendor or technology. This issue becomes immediately critical as service providers consolidate multiple, single-service networks into a single, multiservice network based on the Cisco IP Next-Generation Network (NGN) architecture. Provisioning services and monitoring the network to assure consistent Service-Level Agreements (SLAs) and optimal uptime take on an unprecedented level of complexity as service providers struggle to combine multiple data, voice, and video services into a single management infrastructure.
