1.1 Overview
Measurements Reference describes EAGLE measurements. Measurements provide support for:
-
STP performance management
-
SS7 traffic monitoring and engineering
-
Specific feature performance analysis
Note:
EAGLE supporting ANSI networks make use of the LNP and SEAS features. EAGLE supporting ITU networks do not include these systems.1.2 Scope and Audience
This manual is intended for maintenance personnel who must maintain the EAGLE. The technician should be familiar with SS7 protocols. The manual provides preventive and corrective procedures that will aid maintenance personnel in maintaining the EAGLE.
Preventive maintenance procedures are routines to be carried out on a scheduled basis to help prevent system failures. These routines are industry-standard recommendations and may be adopted to fit any company maintenance plan.
The corrective maintenance procedures are those used in response to a system alarm or output message. These procedures are EAGLE-specific and aid in the detection, isolation, and repair of faults.
