ENvision Element Management System
Graphical Productivity Tools for Network Operators
The ENvision element management system (EMS) leverages the features of Sycamore network access products and reduces operational expenses associated with service delivery.
Product Highlights
Intuitive Graphical Interface – reduces provisioning time, speeds service turn-up and associated revenues, and enables proactive fault management and service restoration through intelligent alarm and reporting features.
Advanced Network Mapping – supports a multi-level hierarchical map to represent cities, buildings, or sub-networks, building a visual layout that closely matches the actual network, including user-selected icons and color-coded status information.

Automatic Device Discovery – uses polling agents and filters to perform discovery of locally attached network devices, including the device type, its network attachments, and supported protocols (including IP, SNMP, Telnet, and HTTP).
Distributed Architecture – employs client/server architecture and distributed database technology to maximize performance, regardless of the size or configuration of the network being managed.
Color-Coded Alerting – changes the color of map objects and performs other actions based on received events. Event action filters can direct ENvision to ignore or log an event, set the event priority, forward the event to other managers as an SNMP trap, forward the event to an e-mail address or alphanumeric pager, display an alarm dialog box, or execute an application program.
Flexible MIB Tools – support real-time displays of standard and private MIB variable data in tabular or graphical format, including derived expressions such as utilization, volume, and percent errors. ENvision includes a general purpose MIB browser for displaying and setting individual MIB variables. The MIB browser can also read all variables supported by a device and export the variable names and values to a file.
Multiple Login Consoles – provide both local and remote access to all ENvision functions via TCP/IP connections. Each console can have complete read/write access, independent of other console sessions.
