The Alcatel-Lucent 5620 Service Aware Manager (SAM) takes service providers well beyond the traditional boundaries of element, network and service management. It enables unified, end-to-end management of IP/MPLS and Carrier Ethernet networks and the services they deliver to help service providers quickly gain the efficiencies they need to beat the competition. Rapid provisioning reduces time-to-market and increases flexibility when launching new services. Proactive troubleshooting helps resolve problems before they affect customers. And ease of integration within the existing operational environment helps service providers get the most from their investments.The 5620 SAM offers a modular, extensible and scalable architecture that can be customized to fit specific operational environments. It consists of four modules that provide: * Element management for traditional FCAPS functionality * Network infrastructure configuration, service provisioning, scripting and customer management * Assurance including physical, network and service topology views and OAM service-diagnostics tools * OSS integration with external applications
