JungleMUX SONET Multiplexer

VistaNET Network Management System (NMS)


VistaNET is a complete suite of software tools to manage the GE Lentronics family of telecommunications products, consisting of JungleMUX SONET and T1 Multiplexers, TN1U and TN1Ue SDH Multiplexers.


Key Benefits

  • Remote configuration, monitoring and testing of all common equipment and telecommunication service interface units at any node in the system, minimizes disruption and maintenance costs
  • Simultaneous configuration and monitoring by more than one user, distributes network administration and maintenance responsibilities
  • Time stamped logging of alarms and intelligent processing of alarm lists, assists in identifying hard-to-find problems, facilitates alarm acknowledgement and provides immediate update on current system status
  • Recording of network configuration changes provides an audit trail for future reference
  • Single integrated system view for interconnected and discrete network segments simplifies management
  • Security is enhanced through a multi-level password and privilege system with automatic expiration interval, controlled by a system administrator
  • Optical status information and BER statistics provide preliminary indications of system level problems, such as fiber cable and equipment component degradation
  •  

    Network Visibility
  • Complete peer-to-peer NMS solution for Lentronics Multiplexer networks
  • Easily accessible through high speed corporate LAN/WANs and traditional dial-up systems

  • Centralized Management
  • Centralized management of both contiguous and non-contiguous networks
  • Supports hundreds of nodes
  •  
    Easy Accessibility
  • Intuitive menu driven, industry standard screens
  • Operates on standard Microsoft (R) Windows platforms (Windows 2008 Server, 2000, XP or NT)
  • Delivers complete monitoring information and configuration control for a Lentronics Multiplexer system

  •  

     

    VistaNET Components
  • VistaNET Local Access (VLA) is a low-cost, rudimentary NMS solution ideal for small networks
  • VistaNET Network Interface (VNI) is the standard NMS offering, providing remote configuration and monitoring of Lentronics Multiplexer networks
  • VistaNET Serial Communication Port Expansion is a Right to Use (RTU) license offered for each additional VNI serial communication port connection privilege. This license is required when further redundancy is needed, or a new network segment is added to the system
  • VistaNET Server Application (VSA) provides a single instance RTU license for the VistaNET server gateway to run on a Windows 2008, 2000, NT or XP PC or LAN server computer
  • VistaNET Server Package (VSP) is a server gateway application supporting TCP/IP Ethernet NMS access, running on an embedded computer in the IP version of the Lentronics service unit (IPSU)
  • VistaNET SNMP Agent (VSNMP) enhances any VistaNET service with SNMP functionality. When enabled, the VistaNET session converts VistaNET alarms into SNMP traps (ver1.0 and/or 2.0) and forwards them to a user-defined list of SNMP managers (via UDP/IP). The agent supports Get commands of active and cleared alarms
  • Alternate Traffic Routing (ATR) provides a RTU license, enabling creation and activation of primary and backup traffic routing schemes in certain Lentronics optical transceiver units
