Overview

GDC's Total Enterprise Access Management (TEAM®) provides a convenient, user-friendly means to manage, control and maintain GDC's SNMP-equipped products. TEAM is a collection of applications seamlessly integrated into Hewlett-Packard's HP OpenView network management software platform. These applications use an intuitive point-and-click architecture that provides easy access to powerful management tools.

A New Point of View

TEAM delivers the high visibility, distributed architecture and open, standards based platform essential for the control of GDC’s SNMP access products. With TEAM Network Management, every node, however remote, is as close as a network administrator’s workstation. A custom designed graphical user interface (GUI) generates realistic views of any GDC shelf, front panel, or control card complete with LED status indicators.  Unlike other systems, this unique “GDC View” of the network enables intuitive interaction with remote devices and immediate access to all management functions without a complex hierarchy
of menus.

The next best thing to having an expert staff member on site at every node, TEAM's distributed approach allows management via multiple controllers located throughout the network. With its support for a large number of network elements, it is particularly effective in environments with many unattended remote sites.

Standards-Based Management Today Conformity

with a standards-based management protocol and an open management platform are fast becoming basic requirements for any network manager.  TEAM Network Management uses SNMP, the standard internetworking management protocol, and HP OpenView — widely-adopted as the open management platform of choice. It also makes use of the powerful multitasking capabilities of UNIX, using HPUX and Solaris operating systems. 

Capabilities

GDC’s TEAM applications provide Fault Management through SNMP traps. HP Open-View receives, stores and displays alarm and fault information from all network devices and TEAM provides the detailed information required to isolate the faults. Pull down menus and pop up windows simplify Configuration Management. All configurations can be saved to the unit or as a template for
subsequent device configurations. 

TEAM applications implement Performance Management through detailed reports that display critical line parameters. Reports are customized to specific devices, such as ESF statistics on a digital access product or number of drop outs on a V.34 modem. Reports also offer Accounting Management by displaying and storing network usage information like data rates and connect times.
TEAM applications make use of user-defined SNMP community names for Security Management.
