Research on NML-EML interface supporting auto-provision of ethernet service over MSTP
Jiaqing Wang · Journal of Guangzhou University · 2007
So far the MTNM v3.0 model from TMF only support the modelling of simple Ethernet private line service,its NML-EML interface protocol can not support auto-provision of Ethernet virtual(line/network) service.In this paper,we first describe the atomic function model of a typical Ethernet service implementation,then propose an idea to add a new object to the MTNM model,by which we can model the implementation and describe the configuration steps.Based on the scheme we can define a new NML-EML interface protocol standard between Resource Management System or Integrated NMS of OSS and the vendor EMSs,which can realize the auto-configuration of Ethernet service on MSTP network from OSS.
