Network Management is the LinchpinHarnessing IP-NGN for Business Success
Must drive business and operational flexibility• Broad ecosystem of OSS software and integration
partners
Must lower operational and management costs• Standards, frameworks, open API’s
• Reduce integration points
Must drive top-line service revenue quickly• Tight interlock between NMS platform and
network equipment and services
• Packaged extensible software vs. custom
development

Service ManagementOperator Top Future Challenges
Convergence to IP Services, Measure End-Customer Experience
• Before: Wireline Service Management: Operator-controlled devices, operator-supplied applications
• Future: Wireless Services (2G,3G,4G): Everything going to “IP”, operator has little/no control over applications
Convergence to a 4G LTE “Wireless Broadband Data Connection”
• Integration and Automation of Business Process
• Smart Auto-Trouble Tickets, Triggered Diagnostics Tools for Mobile Operators
• One Layered Modern Management System for transition from 2# to 3G to 4G LTE (investment protection)
• One Data Collection System & Multiple Presentation Layers (converge “IP NGN network” + “Cloud-Enabled Applications”)
• Network Operations Center
• Service Operations Center
• Portal Frameworks: SP Service Managers, Customers

Cisco Network ManagementTop Service Provider Pain Points
Significant time lag in rolling out
new services
Day-to-day cost of human
errors
Lack of skilled resources to
manage services
High operational costs and time
spent diagnosing problems
Scale business through automation for configuration, change mgmt, monitoring and
diagnostics
Automated processesreduce human errors associated
with configuration, change management & diagnostics
Accelerate service introduction by supporting automated activation, configuration & monitoring of the
latest devices and services
SLA monitoring and diagnostics reduce
troubleshooting time & effort
Customer Satisfaction
Service Adoption &
Acceleration
Automation
Reduce Opex

Unified Management for Mobile BackhaulZero-Touch Deployment of Cell Site Router (CSR)
1. CSR is selected from warehouse and loaded without configuration
2. CNS ID and template for CSR is entered in the configuration engine
4. CSR powers up and calls home to the DHCP/TFTP/Configuration Engine
5. Upon authentication, configuration engine sends configuration to the CSR
6. CSR applies configuration and becomes operational
3. CSR is shipped to its deployment location

Pre-staging can be eliminated
Truck rolls are eliminated
Device pre-provisioning is not required
Lessens the need for a skilled technician to turn up the CSRs
Human errors that creep in during manual provisioning is reduced
Allows true plug „n play CSR connectivity
Automates manual processes, offers incremental services
Quicker revenue recognition
Makes image/config updates and device upgrades easier
Facilitates scalable, cost effective CSR based service offerings, administered from a central location
Helps new service offering introductions
