scope:
The present document addresses the requirements of network and service providers of Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) cross connected networks for establishing, maintaining and releasing Virtual Path (VP) and / or Virtual Channel (VC) connections (generally denoted as 'VP/VC connections' in the present document), which span several administrative ATM domains. These requirements are satisfied by the use of a standardized interface (the "X-interface") between Operation Systems belonging to different network operators.
The present document contains a general overview describing the different management areas that will be covered in the different X-interface ENs - configuration, alarm and performance - as well as the relationships between them.
The present document describes the configuration management area covering the following aspects:
- a management architecture that shows how the X-interface is to be used between service or network providers;
- the management services and functions needed to manage ATM connections, which span several administrative domains. These management services and functions cover the requirements for the X- interface;
- the management information crossing the X-interface. This management information specification uses the Guidelines for the Definition of Managed Objects GDMO formalism, described in ITU-T Recommendation X.722 [4].
