scope:
The present document specifies the management interfaces (Q3 interfaces and X interfaces) associated with the VB5.1 reference point [1], [2] and DE/SPS-03047-1 for the support of configuration, fault & performance management functions, including a management interface for co-ordinated management between the access networks and the service node (the X interface). Fault and performance management together include both passive monitoring of reports and active fault isolation.
The Q3 interface [5] is the TMN interface between network elements or Q-adapters which interface to OSs without mediation and between OSs and mediation devices. The X-interface [5] is the TMN interface between OSs.
Existing protocols are used where possible, and the focus of the work is on defining the object model. The definition of the functionality of TMN Operations Systems is outside the scope of the present document.
Q.2931 is supported at the UNI, and the ATM Forum UNI is supported for compatibility with the established base of ATM equipment.
