Features

Configuration Management with FOXMAN-UN

• FOXMAN-UN automatically discovers and uploads network element data, including position,

type, and cross-connection tables.

• FOX615 networks can be configured offline and later downloaded during installation.

Graphical Network Management

• FOXMAN-UN provides graphical and hierarchical representation of the network.

• No limits on hierarchical levels, and custom customer-specific background bitmaps can be selected.

Alarming and Supervision

• FOXMAN-UN continuously supervises alarms in network elements

(e.g., loss of signal, synchronization, frame).

• It detects state changes and supports five alarm severity levels.

• Operators can modify individual alarm severity.

Security Management

• It provides configurable access control features for individual user accounts and network partitioning.

Integrated Communication Equipment

• FOXMAN-UN integrates various Hitachi Energy communication equipment, such as NSD570.

FOX615. FOX515.E TL600. EDS500. AFS670. as well as 3rd party devices.

• It serves as an overall management system, supervising diverse network element types.

• These elements include different technologies like optical fibers and power line carrier communication.

Performance Management

• Performance management oversees individual data channels’ quality within a network.

• Alarms are triggered if predefined threshold levels are exceeded.

• Facilitates network operators in maintaining high service quality for subscribers.

• Constant supervision ensures optimal performance.

• Performance data in network elements adheres to the ITU-T G.826 standard.

Synchronization view

• Provides an overview of paths and dependencies (synchronization map).

• Collects current synchronization timing source information from FOX515/512

or FOX615/612 network elements.

• Displays this data graphically for easy visualization
