1. Overview of Cisco Prime Optical GateWay/CORBA 
This chapter provides an overview of Cisco Prime Optical GateWay/CORBA (formerly Cisco Transport 
Manager GateWay/CORBA). It includes the following information:

Cisco Prime Optical is a carrier-class, multitechnology management system that integrates the end-to-end 
management of traditional transport networks and new carrier packet transport networks. It can help 
maintain the integrity of existing services, plus deliver interactive, content-based services and high-
bandwidth applications. 
Cisco Prime Optical manages the entire Cisco optical portfolio, including: 
•  Metro core 
•  Metro dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM) 
•  Metro edge and access products 
•  New Carrier Packet Transport (CPT) System products 
Prime Optical also serves as a foundation for integration into a larger overall Operations Support System 
(OSS) environment by providing northbound gateway interfaces to higher-layer management systems. 
The GateWay/CORBA product is a CORBA northbound interface that complies with the TMF CORBA 
specification for network management layer-element management layer (NML-EML) interfaces. 
A programming technology for distributed computing, CORBA enables components of various 
application programs to communicate with one another regardless of their implementation 
characteristics—programming language, operating system, machine, location, and so on. 
GateWay/CORBA allows service providers to implement a programmatic interface between Prime 
Optical and various OSS tools in the back office. Such interfaces enable next-generation flow-through 
equipment and circuit management, including inventory, provisioning, and assurance functions.  
For each NE that Prime Optical manages, the GateWay/CORBA option provides higher-layer 
management systems with fault, inventory, and performance information, plus configuration and circuit 
provisioning capabilities. GateWay/CORBA supports up to eight simultaneous sessions with higher-layer 
management systems. 
GateWay/CORBA supports the following NEs in Prime Optical 10.6: 
•  ONS 15200 
•  ONS 15216 
•  ONS 15305
