Abstract |
Operations support systems (OSS), are computer systems used by telecommunications service providers to manage their networks .Different subdivisions of OSS are service fulfillment and service assurance. As part of this two products have been developed MDF(Motive Dynamic Fulfillment) and MDA(Motive Dynamic Assurance).In MDF the company is trying to ensure fulfillment of services is done completely. For example Inventory, provisioning of services. Hence the product is expected to interact with various telecom devices operating on different interface. It is for this reason that a robust software like FLOE(Functional Layer Object Extender) has been developed. FLOE is software network adapter that communicates with devices using interfaces like SOAP(Simple Object Access Protocol),TELNET etc. At the end it can be able to successfully communicate with various telecommunication equipments like switch, EMS (Element Management System) ,NE (Network Element),Router using different Interfaces like SOAP etc. Output from this equipments and are successfully able to convert it to the format(XML) expected by the remaining modules of the product. FLOE reduces effort in developing a new interface by approximately 70% .Because creating a new interface would take a lot of time and involves writing code, rules file and testing to make sure this interface can be used where an FLOE is already a software network adapter which has some predefined interface on top of which it can be extend some java class using some new rules file by which will be able to support a new interface. |
