Overview

What is the Multiuser Feature?

The COMSPHERE 6700 Multiuser feature gives you the ability

to connect multiple Windows

workstations together to form a

network of NMS users. With this feature, each user’s workstation

has a complete graphical interface that interacts with the NMS

as if it were a single user workstation.

The Multiuser feature consists of two separately orderable

packages: Server and Client.

You can install the Multiuser Server and Client packages on the

COMSPHERE 6700 Series NMS Release 4.0 at any time.

The Multiuser feature supports up to six simultaneous users. In

addition, the software provides statistical data and

Platform/Network Performance Monitoring.

Sample Multiuser Network

Topologies

When using the Multiuser feature, one workstation must be

configured as the NMS

server

where the NMS database resides

and the control channels are connected. The server is also the

point of interface with all NMS devices.

All other networked workstations must be configured as an NMS

client

, which executes only the user interface portion of the

NMS.

Figures 1-1, 1-2, and 1-3 show some sample Multiuser feature

network topologies.
