Axxcelera WiMAX

Axxcelera Management System

(AMS 3.0)

Overview

•  The Axxcelera Management Server (AMS) is a centralized server (framework) that stores information for Axxcelera network devices (CPE, BSM/AP).

•  The AMS framework includes three separate Applications: Map Browser, Axxcelera Link Statistics (ALS), and Axxcelera Provisioning System (APS).

•  At the center of the AMS suite of tools is AxxCore. AxxCore contains all the common elements used by APS, ALS and Map Browser.

•  Map Browser harnesses the power of Google Maps to present a graphical view of a planned and deployed network.

•  Axxcelera Link Statistics (ALS) can collect link statistics for historic and real time viewing. •  Axxcelera Provisioning System (APS) allows system configuration to be a consistent,

repeatable process by automating the provisioning of every Axxcelera device in the network. •  AxxCore interacts with all Axxcelera WiMAX devices via SNMPv2c or SNMPv3.

Axxcelera Application Console (AAC)

•  The AAC provides a flexible and powerful interface into AMS. •  All interaction with AMS occurs through AAC.

Map Browser

•  Map Browser uses Google maps to render a real world visualization of your wireless network from planning to deployment.

•  Channel frequency, bearing, and estimated downlink ranges are clearly displayed over satellite or map imagery.

Axxcelera Link Statistics (ALS)

•  ALS allows the collection of correlated downlink and uplink, historic and real time link statistics on a per-CPE or per-sector basis.

•  ALS collects data that allows the network operator to trend and troubleshoot wireless links.

•  Flexible collection schedules can be assigned on a sector by sector basis. •  ALS collects Key Performance Indicators (KPI).

–  RSSI –  CINR –  FEC Errors –  Throughput –  Tx Power –  QoS Drops –  Temperature –  and more…

ALS (Real Time View)

•  This view of link statistics allows a network operator to troubleshoot CPE issues in real time.

•  Display integrates “snap shot” values and configurable time domain historical data in one easy to read display.

ALS (Historic Data View) – Link View

•  Historical data collections allow the network operator to view long term trend data from a single CPE link.

•  Supports user selectable date range.

ALS (Historic Data View) – Sector View

•  Historical data collections allow the network operator to view long term trend data of all CPE links in a given sector.

•  Supports user selectable date range.

Event Log

•  Event Log displays system events and traps in real time or for a specified date range.

•  The events can be filtered based on severity. •  Columns can be sorted.

Axxcelera Provisioning Server (APS)

•  Axxcelera Provisioning Server is a centralized database that stores all AP/BS/CPE configuration-information and provisions that information to a CPE each time it registers to an AP/BS.

•  Works via SNMP “sets and gets” •  AP/BS is configured to send SNMP traps/inform messages to the

APS server automatically when it is added to APS. •  Provides a centralized location for the storage of all configuration

information. •  Enforces configuration management throughout the network.

Axxcelera Provisioning Server (APS)

•  APS menus are integrated into ACC.

•  Global configuration options set for template inclusion for provisioning to devices.

Axxcelera Provisioning Server (APS)

•  Configuration items are defined through the “Manage” drop down menu.

•  Many different settings for the same item can be created.

•  Once a configuration item has been created, it is available to be assigned to one or more templates.

•  These items great a pool of globally available options for the designer to chose in configuring the network.

Axxcelera Provisioning Server (APS)

•  Packages contain a set of configuration templates.

•  Templates select configuration items and values.

•  Devices or groups of devices, are provisioned specific packages and configured according to the templates contained therein.
