Zhone Management System (ZMS)

The ZMS client-server architecture uses proven industry standard components such as an application server framework and a relational database to provide a robust platform.

ZMS automates complex, tedious and error-prone tasks, thereby raising productivity, improving accuracy and reducing costs for operators.

The ZMS client, called NetHorizon, provides an easy-to-use, GUI for operators to manage and troubleshoot Zhone networks. Maps and sub-maps represent regions, making it intuitive for network operators to drill down for views of chassis, cards, ports, logical interfaces and lists of services. Multiple client support ensures that many operators performing discrete management tasks can simultaneously use data from the ZMS Server.

The ZMS server provides a suite of management applications to support fault, configuration, performance, security and diagnostics functions. It communicates with the Zhone devices via industry-standard protocols such as SNMP and FTP/SFTP, using reliable mechanisms to ensure timely transfers of management information. Service, configuration, and subscriber data are stored in a relational database.
