2.12. Network Management System
OptiCore is a Network Management System (NMS) developed
solely by
ZyXEL , for the MSAP2000 System. The COT’s RJ-45
port provides connection to the NMS. Operators may use
OptiCore’s GUI (Graphical User Interface) to remotely operate
MSAP2000, and conduct various operation and management
functions. After the COT receives commands from OptiCore via
SNMP MIB, it will dispatch the commands to the various RTs, for
system management.

Windows-based Graphical User interfaces (GUI) are developed
using JAVA, and the GUIs represent realistic and flexible
management tools, that can be easily recognized by any
subscriber. The GUI is basically a step-by-step guide, that can
lead operators through the MSAP product series, and help
Service Providers to save on extra training costs.
