Abstract
The emerging interactive video dial tone (VDT) services pose some unique requirements for real-time network monitoring and control. To support the roll-out of VDT-based networks and services, GTE is developing new network management applications on its TONICS (Telephone Operations Network Integrated Control System) platform. TONICS's applications are embedded in a high availability software platform providing distributed processing. The article describes the real-time management requirements of VDT networks, provides an overview of the TONICS integration platform, outlines a network management and control architecture for VDT networks, illustrates example VDT management applications, and discusses the deployment issues. >
