Network Management Solutions
shaping tomorrow with you
NETSMART management solutions simplify
maintenance, provisioning and surveillance.
2
As new and legacy services coexist to support a widening variety of
customers, network support presents more technical challenges. This
complex, competitive environment needs a feature-rich software
system that simplies network management.
For managing your Fujitsu network, NETSMART® software is the
answer. These powerful software systems deliver a targeted solution to
get the best possible performance, keep costs under control and use
resources efciently. NETSMART management solutions simplify
maintenance, provisioning and surveillance of the Fujitsu FLASHWAVE®
family of networking solutions, as well as legacy Fujitsu Network
Elements (NEs).
Customizable Network Management Software
Network maintenance needs vary depending on the type and size of
your network. Fujitsu offers two complementary software systems that
enable customized solutions to suit individual business needs.
NETSMART 1500 Management System
This carrier-class management solution delivers simplied point-and-
click control to enable network-wide provisioning, maintenance and
surveillance from a centralized location.
NETSMART 500 Element Manager
This robust craft interface supports the Fujitsu FLASHWAVE product line
and locally or remotely manages NEs.

The NETSMART 1500 system simplies network management and
handles mature technologies such as TDM in combination with
emerging packet-based technologies such as Connection-Oriented
Ethernet (COE). The NETSMART 1500 Management System supports
and manages the Fujitsu FLASHWAVE product family and all current
and legacy Fujitsu NEs. The system also accommodates networks of
any size.
Single Interface for Layer 1 and Layer 2 Networks
NETSMART 1500 software provides a single interface for the Layer 1
transport network (cross-connects, circuits and paths) and the Layer 2
data network (such as Ethernet Virtual Circuits, tunnels and protection
domains). The ability to view multiple network technologies in a
single management application enables operations personnel to view
relationships among layers, improve fault isolation, and reduce
training time.
Simplied Management for Complex Services
Managing complex COE services is dramatically simplied with the
end-to-end ow provisioning features of the NETSMART 1500
Management System. Centralized A-to-Z management and end-to-end
service provisioning enable consistent application of trafc and
bandwidth proles, a unied database of service inventory, and
end-to-end service views and maintenance operations. The NETSMART
1500 software manages switched VLAN services delivered on Fujitsu
Packet Optical Networking Platforms (Packet ONPs), avoiding the need
for custom in-house software development. The data service
management interface provides the tools to provision Ethernet
circuits, tunnels, protection domains, and service OAM.
Point-and-Click Provisioning for MEF Ethernet Services
With NETSMART 1500 software, provisioning new Ethernet services
requires no in-depth knowledge of Carrier Ethernet parameters.
NETSMART 1500 software uses Metro Ethernet Forum (MEF)
terminology and default settings for commonly used MEF Ethernet
service attributes, enabling users to congure their customers’ unique
Ethernet service attributes, such as bandwidth and Class of Service
(CoS) identication. Now, when users need to dene bandwidth and
Quality-of-Service (QoS) terms, NETSMART 1500 software implements
the associated proles across all FLASHWAVE® Packet ONPs,
automatically accounting for the different functionality and release
levels of these NEs. This eliminates operator errors that normally arise
when conguring different platforms. NETSMART 1500 software can
fully provision an MEF-compliant E-Line or E-Access service in less
than one minute. The data service management interface provides
the tools to provision Ethernet tunnels, protection domains, and
service OAM (SOAM) Y.1731 monitoring.

Operations Made Simple
The NETSMART 1500 Management System is a powerful software
system that supports and manages the Fujitsu FLASHWAVE product
family and all current and legacy Fujitsu NEs. Its intuitive Graphical
User Interface (GUI) makes provisioning, maintenance and
troubleshooting a simple, efcient process. The system can scale to
support hundreds of users and thousands of NEs—securing your
existing investment and supporting future growth.
The NETSMART 1500 software integrates with your existing and future
Operations Support System (OSS) architecture, supporting up to 8,000
NEs and 200 concurrent client sessions per system. The software
protects network integrity by restricting user roles, manages upgrades
of NE software remotely and performs disaster recovery of NE software
and databases.
Enhanced Security through Two-Factor Authentication
The NETSMART 1500 system can authenticate users to a level of
security approved by the Department of Defense’s Joint Interoperability
Test Command (JITC). This authentication system is Public-Key
Infrastructure (PKI), using a combination of a physical authentication
key and a password.

Real Time Network Monitoring
The NETSMART 1500 software keeps
you up-to-date on network conditions
through real time fault management.
The software monitors your network,
displaying alarms and conditions as
they occur, while remote notication
alerts you to events during off hours.
The software also supports the
capability to login and monitor
alarms on other vendors’ TL1-based
equipment. Faults are tracked and
logged in fault reports and forwarded
through supported Northbound
Interface (NBI) uplinks.
Dedicated Custom Access
Network partitioning subdivides a system into smaller sections with
the ability to grant access to designated user groups. This capability
provides custom views for individual user groups or end customers,
enabling targeted access to specic parts of the network. This feature
can also eliminate the cost of having a separate server administrator
at each site.
Control Operational Costs
Managing equipment inventory
is quick and easy with a dynamic
network-wide inventory reporting
tool. The inventory reporting
capabilities eliminate the need
for manual and spreadsheet-
based management by providing
the most up-to-date information
on your Fujitsu equipment. You
get the information you need
when you need it, so you can
identify the hardware release and installed equipment information.
You can create, customize, and lter inventory reports according to
specic criteria you dene.
Capacity management features of the NETSMART 1500 software
enable you to track and optimize bandwidth utilization. Use these
features to maximize network resources by tracking port utilization
and locating unused cards and ports.
Reduce Capital Costs
Product Change Notice (PCN)
management proactively prevents
problems before they occur by
identifying hardware affected by
PCNs. Alerts are posted when a
PCN affects your network.
The NETSMART 1500 system also
reduces costs by performing
remote NE software upgrades to
multiple NEs in parallel, without
service interruption. This ability
eliminates the need to dispatch
technicians to perform upgrades
locally at individual NEs.
Rapid Service Activation
Automated connection
management minimizes design
and circuit activation time within
even the most complex networks.
This feature nds routes
automatically, or you can actively
design circuits with powerful
include/exclude routing and time
slot assignment options. You can
also provision services such as
Gigabit Ethernet and 10/100Base-T
Ethernet, using High- and Low-
Order Virtual Concatenation (VCAT)
as easily as a T1 or T3.

NETSMART 500 Element Manager
15.0/02.13
500: R5.1 1500: R8.0
The NETSMART 500 Element Manager is a separate, complementary
system from the NETSMART 1500 Management System. The
application is used for equipment turn up, installation, and eld
troubleshooting. The NETSMART 500 software supports graphical shelf
views, equipment and facility provisioning, alarm surveillance,
software download, remote memory backup/restore capabilities and
cross-connect provisioning.
No TL-1 Knowledge Needed
With the NETSMART 500 Element Manager, support personnel can
provision, maintain and upgrade Fujitsu networks without the need
for TL1 knowledge. The software is supported on a Windows PC,
connecting to NEs through a data communications network (DCN), or
directly to individual NEs via an Ethernet interface, RJ45, or RS-232
serial cable.
