Powerful Logging Framework
The framework offers to the ZTC operator a
complete set of tools for the monitoring of the
network events. One single log per cluster can
report operations on nodes (structural,
configuration or device nodes), device interactions
with the ZTC server and administrative
operations on the ZTC server. It gives a view of
log events and of log history, shows the real time
log events monitoring, can export log information.
Logging framework can be managed via setting of
schedulable log rotation (monthly, weekly, daily)
and schedulable clean-up (by age, by size or both).

Device Display and Search Engine
The device network can be organized in a tree
structure and variable values can be displayed in
viewed in a clear tabular view. In addition, a
powerful search engine for can search device
nodes, structural nodes and configuration nodes.

The devices status is clearly represented on the
ZTC tree with identification colours:
•
BLUE status: the device has been created but
not configured yet
not configured yet
•
YELLOW status: the device configuration is in
progress
progress
•
GREEN status: the device is up-to-date
•
RED status: the device is unreachable from the

GREY status: the device is forced by the

Open Network Ready
The access rights can be configured down to each
device parameter level.This allows the network
provider to enable each service provider to
configure each service by himself interacting
directly with ZTC, once access is gained to a
specific device and/or parameters.

ZTC Server functionalities exported as a Web
Service allow operations on devices like:
add/remove a device, read/write a configuration
variable, get the current device status. Web
services architecture is based on Simple Object
Access Protocol (SOAP) standard: the XML-based
communication protocol used to access ZTC
Web services. Applications can be developed in
Java or .NET.

Import Tool
Import Tool is an application that allows the ZTC
database creation via an external file.The file can
be in text or Excel format and must contain a set
of ‘batch mode’ operations: add, delete and modify.
ZTC reads the commands file and quickly
populates the database.

ZTC Applications
The ZTC Server exposes device data through the
ZTC WEB Interface.This application can run on
the same machine of the ZTC Server or on a
different one.Through the ZTC WEB Interface,
different actors can contact the ZTC-Server:

These users have the main visibility on the global
network.Their role is to organize the configuration
database to reflect the logical and physical
distribution of the network.They also create new
users with different profiles to which they assign
sub-zones.They can set some variables that are
visible to the whole network.They can define the
support for new types of devices, defining the set
of variables that have to be used to create a
configuration file.

The devices communicate with the ZTC Server
using a local application called ZTC Embedded
Client. Basically, a client periodically asks the ZTC
Server for a newer configuration (configuration
pull). When a new configuration for the device is
available, the client downloads and executes it.
Note that all connections made by the device are
outbound.This implies that no listening service has
to be started on the device.This minimizes
security issues related to accepting inbound
connections.
