Cisco Internet OSS for VoIP: Infrastructure Manager Implementation Guide
OL-2706-01
Chapter 2 Provisioning
Configuration and Provisioning Solution Components
The gateways and gatekeepers that comprise the H.323 voice network send fault and performance data
directly to the fault and performance processing applications (Cisco CNS Notification Engine,
Cisco Info Center, and Cisco CNS Performance Engine). Protocols for transporting this data include
SNMP, Syslog, and RADIUS.
CMNM is a self-contained fault, configuration, performance, and security (FCPS) Element Management
System (EMS) for the PGW 2200. It can stand on its own or operate in conjunction with the fault and
performance components of the Cisco VoIP: Infrastructure Manager Solution. CMNM can send
performance data to the Cisco CNS Performance Engine through periodic FTP uploads and can transmit
fault data directly to the Cisco Info Center using the CEMF probe described in detail in Chapter 4, “Fault
Management.” Cisco PTC sends provisioning commands to the PGW 2200 elements through the Voice
CORBA interface in CMNM provided by CEMF.
Configuration and Provisioning Solution Components
Component List
The components that comprise the Cisco VoIP: Infrastructure Manager Solution’s configuration and
provisioning solution suite provision the network elements and manage the configuration files for those
elements. Version 1.1 of the Cisco VoIP: Infrastructure Manager Solution includes:
1. Cisco Packet Telephony Center integrated with:
a. Cisco Voice Routing Center (Cisco VRC).
2. Cisco MGC Node Manager built upon the Cisco Element Management Framework including:
a. Voice Services Provisioning Tool (VSPT).
b. CiscoView (native component in CiscoWorks2000).
c. Cisco CNS Configuration Registrar (Cisco CNS IE2100 Series).
The following sections detail the specifics of each of these applications.
Cisco Packet Telephony Center
The Cisco Packet Telephony Center provides a Management Solution for large-scale H.323 networks.
Cisco PTC provides network management layer functionality and manages the network through Element
Management Systems (EMSs), or through the network element's management interface (for example,
SNMP or Command Line Interface (CLI)). Cisco PTC maintains a repository of the data, consisting of
customer and services information, for the managed network. This repository is used to configure the
network, provision new services, and to detect network layer configuration inconsistencies.
Refer to the Cisco Packet Telephony Center User Guide for an overview of the Cisco PTC domain
manager as well as other useful information about the product.
For a Cisco H.323 VoIP network composed of VoIP gateways and gatekeepers, Cisco PTC is integrated
with Cisco VRC.
