OSS-RC 10.3 Overview

LZU 1088215 R1A

Description

Today operators manage extremely large networks, varying from Wireline, GSM, CORE to 3G and LTE networks. This could mean that up to 30,000 cells may need to be configured, troubleshooted and monitored. Do you know how operators manage their network elements? Ericsson’s Operation Support System for Radio & Core (OSS-RC) is designed to manage, configure, monitor, troubleshoot and upgrade all the various networks available i.e: wireline Core, 2G, 3G and LTE.

Participants attending the OSS Overview course will be given a basic introduction to the OSS-RC R10.3 system. They will learn how OSS-RC R10.3 is used for centralized

Operation and Maintenance of mobile networks, the nodes specific to each network as well as service layer equipment. Participants are introduced to the Sub-Network Management Platform and learn how its components and applications provide comprehensive

Description

Do you find network management a high-pressure and challenging activity? On a daily basis must you respond to demands for information on the status of the network, network trends and optimization? This OSS-RC 10.3 Applications Workshop will give you an introduction to the applications available in OSS-RC 10.3. for the management of Core, GSM, WCDMA, LTE and IMS networks.

This course gives an introduction to the various Core Network applications available in OSS-RC 10.3 for the Packet and Circuit Switched domains, covering the core nodes for GSM, WCDMA, SAE and IMS. An introduction is also given to all GSM applications for

management of Ericsson BSS. The full suite of tools for managing an Ericsson WRAN/LTE network is also covered in this training.

Along with identifying the OSS applications and tools for management of specific

technologies there are also a number of common applications that will be described in this training, such as those used for fault and performance management.

The course approaches network management proactively, introducing the OSS-RC applications that are used for the following key aspects of network management:

• Finding the current status of the network, and troubleshooting the network in the event of errors.

• Identifying trends in the network, prediciting problems and optimising

the network as a result.

• Regular maintanance tasks to keep the network running smoothly at all

times.

After the course, the participants should have a basic understanding of how to use all the common OSS-RC applications and of how to proceed using the application themselves.

Note: While this course covers all technologies and their management using OSS-RC, some

participants may only require knowledge of just one or two technologies, in which case one of the following courses may be more suitable:

OSS-RC 10.3 Applications for WCDMA/LTE

LZU 1088169 R1A

Description

Do you find network management a high-pressure and challenging activity? On a daily basis must you respond to demands for information on the status of the network, network trends and optimization? This OSS-RC 10.3 Applications for WCDMA/LTE course will give you an introduction to the applications available in OSS-RC 10.3. for the management of WCDMA and LTE networks.

The full suite of tools for managing an Ericsson WRAN/LTE network is covered in this training.

Along with identifying the OSS applications and tools for management of the WCDMA/LTE networks specific technologies there are also a number of common applications that will be described in this training, such as those used for fault and performance management. The course approaches network management proactively, introducing the OSS-RC applications that are used for the following key aspects of network management:

times.

Note: This course covers the management of just WCDMA/LTE networks using OSS-RC but

OSS-RC 10.3 System Administration for GSM

LZU 108 8219 R1A

Description

This course will give the student thorough knowledge about administration of the OSS-RC system. After the course the students will be able to handle network element connections to GSM network elements, administration of the GSM related applications and both standard and corrective maintenance of the system. The student will gain knowledge about how to manage processes, errors and authority issues in the OSS-RC system.

The course consists of chapters with both theoretical and practical sessions. The theoretical parts explain the structure of the OSS-RC system and the network environment. In the practical sessions the students will be presented with the tasks required to administer and maintain an OSS-RC system. The students solve the tasks on a training system, using the on-line documentation.

It should be noted that this is not an OSS-RC operations course where the applications are operated, and neither does it give any information on how to operate or administer different network elements.

On completion of this course the participants will be able to:
