Management Specification Tooling Environment
As a result of the analysis of the requirements for the harmonization of the 3GPP and TM Forum Information Models in the context of FMC basic use cases were developed [1], [2]. These use cases led to the recognition that it would be necessary to define common operation model elements applicable for wire-line and wireless networks. This document defines these common model elements.
To be noted:
- The Umbrella Operation Model (UOM) described in this document provides the set of interfaces/operations etc. that have been agreed for convergence to strengthen consistency of representation and semantics of network management operations in the fixed and mobile environments.
- The UOM is necessary but not sufficient for implementation.
- The UOM cannot be used directly for implementation. Implementation classes must be derived from those in the UOM by Inheritance or some other appropriate mechanism.
- Classes derived from those in the UOM (e.g. for the fixed environment) may use different names from those used in the UOM.
