Abstract
The AUTOPLEX® Q3 adapter was designed to create a telecommunication management network (TMN) agent for the AUTOPLEX System 1000. The agent, which carries out directives and emits notification, provides network management capability for an operations support system (OSS) — also known as a manager — via standard TMN communication protocol and services. The Q3 adapter provides a full range of TMN system management functions, which consist of fault management, configuration management, performance management, and security management. The development of the Q3 adapter was considered very costly, based on the feature estimate by the development organization. This paper describes an overlay development approach and a flexible software architecture that have been incorporated into the Q3 adapter design to make it more cost effective. These factors reduce the complexity of its development and make it easier to maintain different software releases and to modify different TMN information models. The design also creates an independent software platform that enables many other wireless applications to easily build their interfaces to the AUTOPLEX System 1000.
