Performance monitoring

This chapter describes using AM2000 and/or the ASCII Terminal
Interface (ATI) with REMS to monitor a REMS circuit performance.

Overview

It is possible to install and use REMS without Access Manager
(AM2000). However using AM2000 is the best way to monitor REMS
performance. AM2000 is a distinct Verilink product. AM2000 is a menu-
driven ASCII graphical display application that runs in Windows. It
provides ASCII displays of various performance registers.

You can also use the ASCII Terminal Interface (ATI) to display near-end
performance data. No far-end reports are available via the ATI. Verilink
recommends that you use AM2000 for monitoring REMS.

Figur e7-1, Management of performance data, briefly summarizes how
the BRC and FBR work together to manage performance data.

Each FBR provides Red Zone alarm

FBR receives and processes the BRC
performance messages which carry the
network performance data.
