Functionality of Northbound Interface APIs • Authenticate user (computer) and deny access if not authorized • Retrieve from NMS database:- • Network inventory objects • Alarms, network events & alert and associated filters and parsers • History of an alarm • Autonomous events configuration for clients • Retrieve information stored at network element or CPE • Provision / modify / de-provision customer services • Bulk provision many customers • Provision a customer port on network element • Provision a Customer Premise Equipment e.g.iMG device

iMG Subscriber Self Provisioning via NBI • Subscriber views and modifies attributes of service or Home Network configuration via the myAccount part of the Service Provider’s Web Portal • Service Provider authorizes all changes • Changes are implemented via the NMS northbound interface & logged • Subscriber does not have direct access to any attributes via the local iMG interface Customer’s Home Network Service Provider’s Web Portal OSS/BSS iMAP Web Services NMS Northbound Interface AlliedView™ NMS Subscriber request changes
Northbound Interface Security • The security authentication will use the existing security management framework. • All northbound interface modules require a user and password for authentication • Authenticated user must be authorized to perform the requested operation. • Audit trails will be logged Northbound Interface looks like another NMS client
Web Services - Apache AXIS XML/SOAP • “Open source” - www.apache.org • AXIS - Apache eXtensible Interaction System • XML – eXtensible Markup Language • SOAP – Simple Object Access Protocol • WSDL - Web Service Definition Language • Current implementation - Apache Axis 1.4 • Many companies use Axis for Web services support in their products

Demonstration of:-- Provisioning Servicesvia Northbound Interface
Simple Northbound Demonstration • Customer request Telephony and Internet access services • Pre-provision a subscriber’s iMAP port using NMS client screen • Install & auto-provision the iMG for Triple Play services • Subscriber is delinquent and does not pay the video bill • Billing system instructs “OSS” to de-provision the Video service • Subscriber pays bill, login into “myservices” and self-provisionsVideo service • Billing system authorizes “OSS” to re-provision subscriber with Video.
