Evaluation <strong>of</strong> IP <strong>over</strong> WDM Management Solutions 205<br />

This experiment scenario is related to the scenarios that show the GUI<br />

functionality <strong>and</strong> is part <strong>of</strong> the scenario showing interdomain connectivity<br />

functionality.<br />

11.4.3 Configuration Management/Network Provisioning/ICS Provisioning<br />

Different end-user services (MoIP, VoIP, <strong>and</strong> VPN) will require different connectivity<br />

services from the network. This experiment will prove that the NMS<br />

solution is able to accept <strong>and</strong> process a VPN service. Table 11.2 shows the specific<br />

aspects <strong>of</strong> this experiment.<br />

Table 11.2<br />

Experiment Template for Testing the ICS Provisioning<br />

Priority High<br />

Objectives The NMS serves a request from an SMS for the provisioning <strong>of</strong> IP network<br />

connectivity that supports the VPN service to the end users. The<br />

NMS system will show its flow-through provisioning capability (i.e.,<br />

that the request will be processed fully automatically from request<br />

reception to service operational). The operability <strong>of</strong> the service will be<br />

made visible by means <strong>of</strong> end-user applications making use <strong>of</strong> the network<br />

connections. The data stored in the NMS databases will be<br />

checked for validity <strong>and</strong> consistency. The flow-through provisioning<br />

capability is one <strong>of</strong> the main features <strong>of</strong> the solution, which makes this<br />

experiment very significant.<br />

Background A company having several sites spread <strong>over</strong> the country wants to interconnect<br />

the LANs <strong>of</strong> each site via an IP network with high-speed connections,<br />

a high security level, <strong>and</strong> determined QoS. The solution will<br />

be an IP-based VPN. The VPN must support real-time <strong>and</strong> nonreal-time<br />

services. The SMS system orders the network connectivity <strong>over</strong> an<br />

interface, which is a publicly specified interface.<br />

Required tools End-user applications that generate traffic that will flow <strong>over</strong> the provisioned<br />

network connections <strong>and</strong> traffic analyzers that can measure the<br />

QoS parameters <strong>of</strong> the user flows.<br />

Required infrastructure An IP <strong>over</strong> WDM network as described in Chapter 10.<br />

Expected outcome The IP connectivity is delivered through the network. The end-user applications<br />

are able to make use <strong>of</strong> the delivered network services. The<br />

performance <strong>of</strong> the network connections will be measured by means <strong>of</strong><br />

IP traffic analyzers <strong>and</strong> will be reflected by the quality perception <strong>of</strong> the<br />

end-user applications.
