H
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.
In addition, port bursting statistics are kept for all frame relay links. These
statistics are available real-time via the Enterprise MIB and historically as an
RMON2 User History object. In future releases of the OpenLane SLM
system, this will enable even more accurate calculations of utilization.
H Network User History Synchronization. Allows correlation of RMON2 User
History statistics among all SLV devices in a network for more accurate
OpenLane SLV reports. 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.
H
Extensive Testing Capability. Provides a variety of tests to identify
and diagnose device, network, and other problems. These tests can be
commanded from the unit’s menu-driven user interface or the OpenLane
system (using its easy-to-use Diagnostic Troubleshooting feature).
H
Dedicated Troubleshooting PVC. Provides a troubleshooting management
link that helps service providers isolate problems within their network. This
feature can be configured from the menu-driven user interface.
H
Maximum Number of PVCs and Management PVCs Supported.

H
Router-Independence. Unique diagnostics, performance monitoring,
PVC-based in-band network management, and SNMP connectivity is not
dependent upon external routers, cables, or LAN adapters.
H
Inverse ARP and Standard RIP Support. Provides Inverse ARP (Address
Resolution Protocol) support so the frame relay router at one end of a
management PVC can acquire the IP address of a FrameSaver unit at the
other end of the PVC. Standard RIP (Routing Information Protocol) allows the
router to automatically learn the routes to all FrameSaver units connected to
that FrameSaver unit.
H
LMI Packet Capture. Provides a way to upload data that has been captured
in a trace file so the data can be uploaded and transferred to a Network
Associates Sniffer for analysis, or viewed via the menu-driven user interface.
The 12 most recent LMI messages can be displayed from the menu-driven
user interface.
