USE CASES

A network and service-layer management application

Managing an optical transport network means having the tools you need to address any situation from simple alarm and service monitoring to complex troubleshooting and service restoration. Celestis NMS provides a single network platform to manage all hardware, services and capabilities supported by the Ekinops Optical Networking platforms. By organizing the network into a system of physical, virtual and logical resources, Celestis NMS simplifies network monitoring and diagnostics so operators can more easily identify, and even anticipate, events and anomalies and more quickly isolate faults in the event of a failure.
