FrameSaver SLM Feature Set

A FrameSaver SLV unit with the advanced SLM feature set provides the following

features in addition to those provided with the basic set:

TruePut

™

Technology.

Using Frame Delivery Ratios (FDR) and Data

Delivery Ratios (DDR), throughput (within and above CIR, as well as between

CIR and EIR, and above EIR) can be measured precisely, eliminating

inaccuracies due to averaging.

Intelligent Service Level Verification.

Provides accurate throughput, latency,

and availability measurements to determine network performance and

whether service level agreements (SLAs) are being met, along with SLA

reporting.

RMON Alarms and Configurable Alarm Thresholds.

Provides the ability to

change SLA parameter and RMON alarm thresholds via the OpenLane

system to correct them in real-time, before the SLA is violated.

Multiplexed Customer PVCs.

Provides a method of multiplexing customer

management data and user data with network management data

transparently over a single PVC when FrameSaver devices are at each end of

the circuit.

FTP User History Poller.

Provides a bulk collector using FTP through the

OpenLane system that generates a file for data at the time that data is

uploaded using FTP.

Network User History Synchronization.

Allows correlation of RMON2 User

History statistics among all SLV devices in a network. Using a central clock,

called the network reference time, all SLV device user history statistics are

synchronized across the network, further enhancing the accuracy of

OpenLane SLV reports.

RMON-Based User History Statistics Gathering.

Provides everything

needed to monitor network service levels, plus throughput with accurate data

delivery, network latency, and LMI and PVC availability. Continuous roundtrip

latency testing and reporting, as well as CIR to transmitted and received data

performance statistics, are included.

In addition, port bursting statistics are kept for all frame relay links for accurate

calculation of utilization.
