5 NetCM Main Functionality Planned vs. Live Activity Management Business Rules NetCM has the ability to extract configuration information from both the live and the planned network and identify discrepancies between the two. The activity manager allows for common configuration activities to be performed, such as the addition of new sites or reparenting of sites between controllers. The business rules engine ensures that network integrity is maintained by auditing and supporting parameter and configuration dependencies. MML and XML Generation Reporting Policies NetCM creates the necessary MML and XML scripts required to implement configuration changes into the network. NetCM contains hundreds of predefined reports identifying common configuration issues between vendors and domains. Multiple policies or templates can be applied to all configuration data in NetCM and discrepancies in the configuration can be highlighted and rectified.
