NP Reporting Tool
The NP Reporting Tool is part of the licensed option «FOXMAN-UN Networking Package». This powerful tool generates a set of ten report files in CSV format containing information on NEs, units, ports, applications, customers, sections and transport entities. These files can be analyzed offline by any suitable third party tool (e.g. MS Excel).
Reports are generated on the same workstation where the FOXMAN-UN core is installed. The tool can be started at any time during normal FOXMAN-UN operation.
Please note:
The NP Reporting Tool gives the possibility to edit large reports without disturbing the FOXMAN-UN NP core.
The following information is collected and stored in the report files:
• List of all network elements and foreign objects in the network with their names and types;
• List of units and software versions in each network element;
• List of all ports of all units for each network element with their names, used status, free bandwidth and time slot occupation;
• Application list with the status of each application;
• List of all Transport Entities with path details;
• List of all sections at the E12, O22 and STM-1 layer with the status of all sections;
• List of circuits per customer;
• List of trails.
Further information can be found in the “FOXMAN-UN Networking Package” User Manual.
