EMC Smarts Optical Transport: A Manager of Managers for Ensuring Service Delivery Over Optical Networks
Overview EMC Smarts Optical Transport Manager provides carriers a powerful means to minimize the length of outages in their optical networks. Optical Transport Manager offers the same value proposition of other Smarts products, leveraging the EMC Smarts Common Information Model to discover and dynamically manage a SONET/SDH and DWDM architecture. Optical Transport Manager distinguishes failures from impacts associated with those failures, and notifies the user what circuits the failures have affected The use of EMC Smarts Application Services Manager and Business Impact Manager extends correlation to the impacted applications and business services that depend on this infrastructure. The result is a highly efficient fault management system that gives IT personnel the edge they need to manage their optical networks efficiently and cost-effectively.
