WebNMS Case StudyChunghwa Telecom

Industry: Broadband Service provider

Business Challenge: To provide a highly-scalable and integrated network management platform for effectively managing Chunghwa Telecom’s heterogeneous infrastructure consisting of multi-vendor/ multi-technology network elements and management applications.

Solution: Engineers at Chunghwa Telecom built a truly unified management application, Quality Management System (QMS™), using the carrier class management platform—Web NMS Framework.

Highlights: • Seamless integration with applications and network

elements such as Alcatel 1648 SM, Nortel Networks S/DMS OC 48 Transport Node, etc.

• Unified platform that encompasses the entire infrastructure

• Integrated and comprehensive fault and performance management functions

• Highly-scalable and flexible architecture that allows deployment flexibility and ease of integration

• Comprehensive inventory repository

• Unified client for consistent and easy visualization of alerts and performance data

Benefits:• QMS™ eliminates the need for expensive infrastructure

forklifts to unify the network operations.

• Operators can proactively monitor service-affecting metrics and resolve them beforehand.

• Intuitive display schemas enable operators to manage the infrastructure effectively and efficiently.

“The responsiveness of the AdventNet support was without doubt, commendable.”

Business Challenge: Chunghwa Telecom provides high-performance telephony, broadband, data communication, Internet, and wireless services to over 20 million subscribers in Taiwan and the offshore islands. Chunghwa Telecom relies fully on its network infrastructure for its day-to-day operations. Chunghwa Telecom’s infrastructure is an expansive heterogeneous transmission network composed of network elements and management applications from established vendors, such as Nortel Networks, Alcatel, and NEC among others.

The infrastructure is managed by a diverse set of standard protocols such as SNMP, TL1, and CLI as well as proprietary protocols. Enabling interoperability and tight integration in such networks is a daunting challenge. Streamlining operations that involve interactions between multi-vendor multi-technology entities has been traditionally achieved by introducing protocol and function specific adapters. However, as the number and complexity of network elements increase, this model becomes prohibitively expensive and complex.

Chunghwa Telecom was looking for an integrated and highly-scalable platform to enable management across various elements and management applications.

“AdventNet supported us through a dedicated offshore engineering team ensuring the completion of the design, development, and deployment of QMSTM ahead of our ambitious schedule.”

Solution:Chunghwa Telecom selected WebNMS’s carrier class network management platform, Web NMS, for its management software development project.

The engineers at Chunghwa Telecom rapidly developed the Quality Management System (QMS™), a management solution that seamlessly integrates applications and Network Elements (NEs) such as Alcatel 1648 SM, Nortel networks S/DMS OC48 Transport Node, etc, and effectively manages Chunghwa Telecom’s complex network infrastructure.

WebNMS Framework provided hooks for all the requirements of Chunghwa Telecom and facilitated rapid development of the application with its out-of-the-box FCPS functionalities, open standard northbound interfaces, scalable n-tier architecture, inventory management, provisioning, and intuitive GUI.

“Using Web NMS, we were able to achieve a closely-knit infrastructure at a fraction of the cost and time compared to other alternatives. With this approach, our network architects and operations personnel can increasingly focus on their core tasks – network planning and design, evolution and operations to extract the highest quality, reliability, availability and performance from our networks, and maximize the ROI from our infrastructure investment”

— Ms. Li Hsiou Wu, Chief Researcher at Chunghwa Telecom

“The carrier environment at companies, such as Chunghwa Telecom, is continually growing in size and complexity, which drives the need for greater control through more automated management and centralized operations. The Web NMS product provides an essential management platform for ensuring the effective delivery of services, enabling Chunghwa Telecom to remain competitive.”
