AS8100
Sitespan is Airspan Networks' wireless DSL management system designed
as a configuration, alarm, test and performance manager for the AS4000
range systems. AS8200 Netspan manages both AS4000 and AS4020 systems.
AS8100 and AS8200 are scaleable to suit a range of different network
sizes and provides assistance to the network operators to ensure ongoing
service deliveries by simplifying the handling of such tasks as alarm
management, performance monitoring and fault localization. AS8100
uses a Microsoft Windows NT-based, client-server architecture to support
multi-user management of a geographically dispersed set of network
elements.
AS8100's object oriented architecture has been developed to support
rapid response to and from the user interfaces. The user interface
is entirely graphical and windows-based, utilizing drop-down menus,
icon-based representations, maps and equipment views. It is capable
of scaling from a single, standalone PC to multiple client server
PC configurations.
By permitting configurations that place some or all of the clients
remotely from the servers, it is possible to support simultaneous
management by several users across a widely deployed network.
One or more clients may simultaneously connect to one or more servers
to span a large number of managed elements. Connection of remote clients
can be via modem, LAN or WAN. Windows NT Remote Access Service (RAS)
is utilized to support dial-up connections at speeds as low as 9.6
kbit/s. All of these capabilities are policed by the Windows.
