FCAPS

FCAPS is a standard model describing the key points of network management. However, applying each component to an organization’s unique network architecture can present a significant challenge for network administrators. ERAMON addresses this need by providing modules tailored to each aspect of the FCAPS model, helping administrators streamline their workflows and effectively manage all areas of network performance.

The fault management section allows the administrator to detect and rectify network incidents. This also includes the identification of potential future issues. The relevant users can start the process to prevent these issues from reoccurring. Using fault management thus ensures a high operational availability of the network, while keeping downtimes to a minimum. ERAMON offers the required functions within the following modules:

Operations

Proactive Management

Topology View

Reporting

An efficient configuration management system ensures that devices are correctly configured according to the current guidelines. It also offers a way to return corrupt devices back into operation, since an efficient management tool saves and holds the configurations of all devices separately. The configuration management also maintains an inventory of equipment for all relevant devices. This forms the basis on which devices are kept up-to-date. The following ERAMON modules provide all the necessary features in this context:

Provisioning

Config Compliance Check

Asset Management

Carrier Management

IP Adress Management

The accounting level, sometimes also referred to as Administration, deals with the optimum distribution of resources, to ensure that all users can access the capacities as intended and specified for them. As the name suggests, at this stage and level we are also dealing with the accurate visualization of services and performances used. By incorporating the required functions on one platform ERAMON offers a wide range of reporting and calculation options as part of the following modules:

Traffic Analysis

Performance Management

Reporting

The monitoring of network performance is an essential and critical part of the management. It involves a proactive analysis of network activity and in its course delivers crucial information for important decisions, affecting planning as well as the current operations. Avoid bottlenecks before they occur. The following modules assist you in these tasks:

Performance Management

SLA Reporting

Reporting

Savety is arguably one of the most important aspects of the FCAPS-Model. However is not possible to ensure and guarantee the safety and security of complex networks with one product alone. Only the finely tuned interactions of several functions and mechanisms can ensure this. One of them lies in the network management itself, with its focus on separating the roles and responsibilities of administrators and users, as well as ensuring traceability of all changes made. ERAMON offers various functions and mechanisms to ensure and guarantee this safety and security, such as:

Basic Module

Provisioning

Multi-Tenancy

Config Compliance Check
