Monitoring Functions

Events Generation

• Time-stamping with resolution of 0.1 millisecond (LAN-WAN) or 0.1 microsecond (ATM).
• The events report the physical state (ATM, ISDN, Vseries), bop framing, Bert counting....
• Events from the 7 interfaces merged into a single flow of events sorted by time

Events Recording

• Events recorded in real-time directly on hard-disk under their native format (binary data + date).
• Recording modes: overwrite, append, circular
• Filtering capabilities

Events Display

• Event-editor displays the events by reading the events on hard-disk :
  • Protocol events (ATM cells, Asynchronous characters, HDLC frame, Ethernet 802.3 frames ISDN, QSIG, X25, Frame Relay, IP/IPX, TCP, H323, SIP, X224/X225, V120, PPP, LCP, GSM, SS7, V5 and a lot of variations are decoded and translated under protocol strings.
  • The protocol stack specification provides an unlimited number of combinations : decoding simultaneously B and D channels, PPP on asynchronous links or in ISDN-B channels, IP/TCP, H323 on Ethernet links, PDU on ATM........
  • Statistics events (counters specified by the user) can be displayed under history or counter mode
• Editing commands and facilities
• Filtering capabilities
