Check the Report Groups boxes corresponding to any additional measurement reports to be

exported.

Note: This step is optional, but is available to allow the export of multiple measurement group

reports simultaneously.

6. Select the Export Frequency.

Note: If the selected Export Frequency is Fifteen Minutes or Hourly, specify the Minutes. 7. Enter the Task Name.

For more information about Task Name, or any field on this page, see Measurements data export elements .

Note: Task Name is not an option if Export Frequency equals Once. 8. Select the Time of Day.

Note: Time of Day is only an option if Export Frequency equals Daily or Weekly. 9. Select the Day of Week.

Note: Day of Week is only an option if Export Frequency equals Weekly. 10. Click OK or Apply to initiate the data export task.

The data export task is scheduled. From the Status & Manage > Tasks page, you can view a list of files available for download, including the file you exported during this procedure. For more information, see Displaying the file list.

Scheduled tasks can be viewed, edited, and deleted, and reports of scheduled tasks can be generated from Status & Manage > Tasks. For more information see:

Advanced Encryption Standard AES

Attribute-Value Pair AVP

The Diameter protocol consists of a header followed by one or more attribute-value pairs (AVPs). An AVP includes a header and is used to encapsulate protocol-specific data (e.g., routing information) as well as authentication,

authorization or accounting information.

C

Computer-aided policy making CAPM

A DSR Application that is responsible for sending and Charging Proxy Application

receiving Diameter accounting messages.

Communication Agent ComAgent

A common infrastructure component delivered as part of a common plug-in, which provides services to enable communication of message between application processes on different servers.

See ComAgent. Communication Agent

Capability Point Code ANSI CPA

C

The Charging Proxy Application (CPA) feature defines a DSR-based Charging Proxy Function (CPF) between the CTFs and the CDFs. The types of CTF include GGSN, PGW, SGW, HSGW, and

CSCF/TAS.

Comma-separated values CSV

The comma-separated value file format is a delimited data format that has fields separated by the comma character and records separated by newlines (a newline is a special character or sequence of characters signifying the end of a line of text).

D

Data Set Ready DSR

Diameter Signaling Router A set of co-located Message Processors which share common Diameter routing tables and are supported by a pair of OAM servers. A DSR Network Element may consist of one or more Diameter nodes.

F

Full Address Based Resolution FABR

Provides an enhanced DSR routing capability to enable network operators to resolve the designated Diameter server addresses based on individual user identity addresses in the incoming Diameter request messages.

See FABR. Full Address Based Resolution

G

Graphical User Interface GUI

The term given to that set of items and facilities which provide the user with a graphic means for manipulating screen data rather than being limited to character based commands.

I

Intelligent Peripheral IP

Internet Protocol

IP specifies the format of packets, also called datagrams, and the addressing scheme. The network layer for the TCP/IP protocol suite widely used on Ethernet networks, defined in STD 5, RFC 791. IP is a connectionless, best-effort packet switching protocol. It provides packet routing, fragmentation and re-assembly through the data link layer.

IP Front End IPFE

A traffic distributor that routes TCP traffic sent to a target set address by application clients across a set of application servers. The IPFE minimizes the number of externally routable IP addresses required for application clients to contact application servers.

Message Processor

The role of the Message Processor is to provide the application messaging protocol interfaces and processing. However, these servers also have OAM&P components. All Message Processors replicate from their Signaling OAM's database and generate faults to a Fault Management System.

Operations, Administration, and Maintenance

OAM

The application that operates the Maintenance and Administration Subsystem which controls the operation of many Tekelec products.

Operations, Administration, Maintenance, and Provisioning. OAM&P

These functions are generally managed by individual

applications and not managed by a platform management

application, such as PM&C Operations – Monitoring the environment, detecting and determining faults, and alerting administrators.

Administration – Typically involves collecting performance statistics, accounting data for the purpose of billing, capacity planning, using usage data, and maintaining system reliability. Maintenance – Provides such functions as upgrades, fixes, new feature enablement, backup and restore tasks, and monitoring

media health (for example, diagnostics).

Provisioning – Setting up user accounts, devices, and services.

Range Based Address Resolution RBAR

A DSR enhanced routing

application which allows the user to route Diameter end-to-end transactions based on Application ID, Command Code, “Routing Entity” Type, and Routing Entity address ranges.

Simple Network Management Protocol.

SNMP

An industry-wide standard protocol used for network management. The SNMP agent maintains data variables that represent aspects of the network. These variables are called managed objects and are stored in a

management information base (MIB). The SNMP protocol arranges managed objects into groups.

Virtual Local Area Network VLAN

A logically independent network. A VLAN consists of a network of computers that function as though they were connected to the same wire when in fact they may be physically connected to different segments of a LAN. VLANs are configured through software rather than hardware. Several VLANs can co-exist on a single physical switch.
