MAXIMIZE NETWORK VALUE
The Challenge of Convergence
The transport world is changing as TDM, DWDM, and packet technologies merge. As communications traffic
increases, the challenge is how to maximize existing network value, while addressing the growing and changing
demand for innovative, advanced service offerings.
The converged network is a dynamic mix of legacy, current, and emerging technology, which presents timeconsuming and costly challenges. New packet-based data services place significant stress on existing Operations
Support Systems (OSS). Each new service and each new network element increases the risk of overwhelming the
available support resources for OSS software development.
The solution to these challenges and risks must:
ff Reduce the cost of operations, and of supporting new network elements
ff Reinforce competitiveness by speeding up the introduction of new services
ff Maximize automation to reduce costs
ff Support efficient use of resources to keep service offerings economical

Customize NETSMART® 1500 Management System for Your OSS

The challenge is how
to maximize existing
network value, while
addressing growing and
changing demand for
innovative, advanced
service offerings.

Solving the problem and meeting the challenge requires an individualized
approach. Your converged network requires just the right mix of simplicity
and control combined with just the right feature set for individual systems. The Fujitsu NETSMART 1500
management system is firmly established as the software foundation of choice for managing Fujitsu network
elements.
The Fujitsu custom OSS integration solution builds on this firm foundation. It offers a variety of Northbound
Interfaces (NBIs), developed to optimize communication and data exchange between NETSMART 1500
management system and your OSS.

TARGETED CUSTOMIZATION
We use our technical expertise to examine and understand your network environment. We get to know how
your individual OSS is implemented, and help you identify bottlenecks. Where optimal, we develop custom code
to leverage the features of NETSMART 1500 software specifically for your OSS. The result: end-to-end services
and seamless, simplified system management.

Our solution targets customization precisely where needed. When appropriate, the standard NBI software
modules are used out of the box to support OSS integration. If your OSS cannot use an existing NETSMART 1500
NBI, Fujitsu software experts will tailor existing NBIs or develop complete, custom interface modules.
Network Management System Integration Benefits:
ff Improve efficiency and responsiveness by increasing automation
ff Activate new services faster by automating end-to-end provisioning across a f
multivendor network
ff Prevent circuit-provisioning fallout by synchronizing inventory information
ff Optimize network usage using dynamic data about available resources
ff Reduce fault resolution time by auto-forwarding alarm data to helpdesk and trouble f
ticket applications
ff Predict potential trouble spots and bottlenecks by sending PM data to a central repository
for further analysis

A COMPLETE SOLUTION
Case Study
A carrier with a large multivendor network approached the Fujitsu Network Operations team to work as a
strategic partner in an OSS integration project. The team responded with a comprehensive solution based on the
NETSMART 1500 management system.

Customer Goals
The carrier needed to put new technologies rapidly and efficiently into operation. They also aimed to reduce
OPEX and stretch CAPEX dollars by optimizing use of bandwidth and system resources.
The project team focused efforts on two key integration areas:
ff Service provisioning interfaces
ff Fault management interfaces for new services

The Optimal Solution
Fujitsu technical experts determined the optimal service provisioning solution, which was to extend the
NETSMART 1500 Multi-Technology Network Management (MTNM) interface. As a result they developed a custom
interface specific to the customer’s back office and OSS.
The technical team also enhanced service provisioning by using the NETSMART 1500 software's topology autodiscovery to create the network connection layer automatically. This simplified construction of A-to-Z service
throughout the carrier’s network. The carrier’s in-house OSS selected the endpoints, determined the path, and
then sent the path information to the NETSMART 1500 system for service creation and activation.
Customizing the NBI also improved
fault management for new services
using cutting-edge DWDM
technology. Fault data was posted to
the carrier’s NBI, while the
NETSMART 1500 system continuously
monitored network health. The
customized system generated MTNM
notifications, based on TL1 messages
from the network elements.
Then the software passed these
MTNM messages to the carrier’s fault
management application. Using root
cause analysis, the fault management
OSS application diagnosed problems and dispatched repair technicians. The technical team also drastically
shortened response times by configuring the back office reporting and analysis solutions to interact with the
trouble ticket system.
The MTNM interface was also developed to provide performance monitoring. The interface gathered the latest
metrics about individual network equipment, facilities, and ports. This data could be presented on a networkwide or at an individual network element level.

END-TO-END SERVICES
Project Life Cycle
The Fujitsu NETSMART 1500 OSS integration solution consists of a set of professional services for the full project
life cycle, completed in four major steps. We partner with you throughout the project—from project definition
and analysis, through design and testing, to deployment and ongoing support. The customized, integrated
solution can be developed, implemented, tested, and turned up without causing any interruption to your
existing NETSMART 1500 system.
• Define the scope of work (such as
service provisioning, fault management,
and inventory management)
• Define the integrated solution (such as
the interface format and
implementation agreement)

Stage 1 – Problem Definition
The project begins with a detailed study
of your existing OSS. We research and
determine where custom interfaces can
offer improvements.

• Create a statement of work that ensures
we meet your expectations and timelines

• Our highly trained system engineers design
and develop customized
NETSMART 1500 management system NBIs
• System testers complete rigorous test
cycles to ensure that all requirements
are flawlessly met

• System engineers work on-site to test the
solution with your OSS and verify seamless
integration into the network
• The software is tuned for optimal
functionality

• Once the solution is implemented,
Fujitsu offers ongoing support and
maintenance
