For example, in clustering, load balancing might distribute the incoming transactions evenly to all servers, or it might redirect them with hot-swappability from within TollBridge's TollView(TM) Management Suite as well as through third-party Operation Support Systems (OSS Oss (ôs), city (1994 pop. 62,141), North Brabant prov., S Netherlands; chartered 1399.

Increasingly, carriers must manage a complex multi-technology, multi-vendor network. Automatic and proactive monitoring, testing, and re-provisioning for all segments of this network greatly simplifies this task.&uot; The TollBridge TollView Element Management System The TollBridge TollView Element Management System provides:
- Powerful SLA Monitoring
TollView has a highly efficient speech path, ensuring SLA
compliance and guaranteeing toll-quality voice across varying
network conditions. Also, TollView features advance notification
of alarm thresholds (latency and dropped packets), providing
additional feedback to network management personnel, including
Performance feedback of Voice Utilization on a per Voice
Processor basis.
- Flexible Network Management
The TollVoice solution features Simple Network Management
Protocol (SNMP), telnet and the GR-303 embedded operations
channel for flexible network management. Additionally, the
command line interface within TollViewis accessible direct
connected, through the local area network and through the
broadband network, greatly increasing network serviceability.
- Dynamic Load Balancing with Hot-Swappability
By monitoring the Voice Processor Utilization Metric on each
Voice Module, TollView can apply its own heuristic to
automatically re-configure voice paths to voice cards, including
newly hot-swapped cards.
- Flow-Through Provisioning
The TollView solution includes Element Operations Center (EOC)
support, which facilitates operational procedures and is
consistent with standard DLC provisioning and installation
processes. This Flow-Through Provisioning feature and the Dynamic
Load-Balance feature within the TollView EMS has been exported to
other EMSs and Network Management Systems (NMSs) with the new
East/West-bound interfaces creating a new automated proactive
service deployment process.
- Future-Proofing
Because TollView supports new East/West-bound interfaces with
CORBA/XML/JAVA-RMI, new features can be dynamically upgraded with
no truck-rolls required and with minimal service interruption.
OSS solutions of today, will be able to connect to the TollView
System using conventional North/South-bound interfaces Transport Layer
1 (TL.1), Common Management Interface Protocol (CMIP), and SNMP. In
addition, with the new East/West-bound interfaces from CORBA/
JAVA-RMI/ XML to the new next-generation Broadband Element Management
Systems, TollBridge customers are enabled to flexibly deliver
end-to-end proactive provisioning and fault management. New Voice
CLECs which typically adopt OSS solutions that are more distributed
and automated with an emphasis on standards, speed, reliability, and
scalability with minimal high-skilled personnel, will benefit with
this new automated proactive service deployment process from
TollBridge to not only quickly deploy services but maintain customers
as well.
About TollBridge Solutions
Designed for LEC bypass, the TollBridge product set consists of
three elements:
- TB50, Integrated Access Device (IAD) that converts voice samples
from multiple calls into packets and prioritizes voice and data
traffic for transmission over any broadband access network;
- TB200, a carrier-grade Local Exchange Gateway that translates
packets back into voice and connects to Class 5 switches using
the Bellcore GR-303 protocol and new emerging protocols such as
SIP and MGCP;
- TollView(TM) Management Suite, including EMS, a graphical Element
Management System (EMS) for end-to-end configuration,
troubleshooting, and performance management of up to 100 TB200
systems from HP OpenView(TM) on SUN Solaris(TM) platforms.
About TollBridge Technologies Founded in March 1998 and located in Santa Clara, Calif., TollBridge Technologies is the leading provider of voice-over-broadband solutions to a new generation of carriers. TollBridge solutions change the economics of delivering voice services by allowing carriers that own Class 5 switches to use broadband access See broadband and wireless broadband. technologies, such as DSL DSL in full Digital Subscriber Line Broadband digital communications connection that operates over standard copper telephone wires. It requires a DSL modem, which splits transmissions into two frequency bands: the lower frequencies for voice (ordinary or cable, to bypass In communications, to avoid the local telephone company by using satellites and microwave systems. the incumbent local exchange carrier ILEC, short for incumbent local exchange carrier, is a local telephone company in the United States that was in existence at the time of the break up of AT&T into the Regional Bell Operating Companies (RBOCs) also known as the "Baby Bells".
