Advance Management System Overview 
Historical Footprint 
The AMS is able to maintain an on-line historical log for all received management parameters. The 
retrieving function with filtering capabilities for management data is provided. 
 
The AMS is able to export and report the log and management information to the specific file format.

The Architecture of AMS 
This section describes the AMS Server architecture and network protocols within used. 
 
AMS is base on Client-Server architecture with database to store the enormous of NEs (Network 
Elements) information, includes the fault manager, performance manager, and other facility.

AMS Server Software Block Diagram 
By employing the multi-process, modular architecture, and object-oriented design, with distributed 
system management supported, AMS provides high scalability, flexibility, and reliability. 
 
The Process Manager (PM) control schedules to the NE daemon in a real-time of unified manner and 
monitors, all PM use the same ASKBA Communication Center (ACC) to transfer messages in between, 
thus making the NE daemons highly independent, each PM application can initiate multiple real-time 
tasks, which can be quickly switched in between.

AMS Server provides device-specific component management applications. As one major feature of 
the NMS, the high scalability shows itself in the modular management to added new functions and 
easy integrated with other NMS devices.
