7 3GPP OSS Integration
The 3GPP standard provides APIs to integrate EMS / NMS systems with OSS. The standard
supports SOAP/XML, CORBA and CMIP based interface for the OSS to access the EMS /
NMS systems.
The 3GPP standard can be extended to support vendor specific attributes. The OSS client
applications that integrate with the 3GPP OSS interface can perform network management
functions as defined by 3GPP specification called Interface Reference Points (IRP).
This document describes the 3GPP interfaces to support the following IRPs via., SOAP
interface:
• Inventory Management IRP
• File Transfer ( FT ) IRP
• Notification IRP
As part of Mobility 1.0 and Prime Network 4.0, 3GPP interface will be provided to support
ASR5000 and ASR5500 devices.
For a sample SOAP Request and Response for all the APIs defined in these interfaces, refer
to the Prime Network OSS Integration Guide SOAP Request Response document on

7.2 3GPPIntegration Reference Point (IRP)
The Integration Reference Point (IRP) defines a standard way for the OSS client (IRP
Manager) to refer and access the EMS / NMS (IRP Agents).
The 3GPP Integration Layer will support an IRP Agent that provides support for the
InventoryIRP, File Transfer IRP and Notification IRP. The Inventory IRP is a complete Cisco
extension.The File Transfer IRP and Notification IRP has a restricted support in this release.
