Vizion Logical Network Inventory


Within the Resource and Asset Management the Logical Network Inventory application offers a comprehensive solution for recording information about logical resources within an operator’s network. This versatile module enables inventorying various network segments and topologies efficiently. Users can easily manage the network structure, adding, modifying, and deleting nodes and links, and drill down from logical objects to their underlying physical devices. 

With features like displaying network graphs against digital maps and presenting network structure drawings, Logical Network Inventory offers enhanced visualization capabilities, especially beneficial for wide area networks. 

Additionally, the application facilitates managing logical connections, including connections for the operator’s own needs, leased to customers, or leased from other vendors, providing detailed information on connection routes, channels, status, and customer details, streamlining network management and service delivery processes. 

Benefits

1
Efficient Inventory Management

The Logical Resource Inventory application streamlines the recording of logical assets within the operator’s network, enabling comprehensive inventory management of various transmission technologies and network segments.

2
Enhanced Network Visualization

Users can visualize network structure as graphs against digital maps, facilitating a better understanding of actual node locations in the field. Additionally, the ability to depict network resources in logical drawings detached from geographical context enhances visualization, especially beneficial for wide-area networks.

3
Streamlined Connection Management

The module simplifies the management of logical connections, including those set up for the operator's own needs, leased to customers, or leased from other vendors. Users can efficiently track connection routes, channels, and status, along with associated customer details and contracts, optimizing connection setup and service delivery processes.

4
Automated Diagram Generation

With the capability for automated diagram generation, the application optimizes the distribution of information on connections and connection nodes, enabling users to generate dynamically generated connection diagrams with ease. This feature enhances efficiency in network management and reduces manual effort in diagram creation

Key functionalities

1
Inventory Management

The Logical Resource Inventory application enables the recording and management of various logical assets within the operator’s network.

2
Flexible Network Structure Representation

Users can organize network segments over different topologies such as mesh, ring, or tree, with different transmission technology resources grouped into logical layers. The network structure for each layer is stored in a database, allowing users to add, modify, or delete nodes and links as needed.

3
Enhanced Visualization and Analysis

The application offers visualization capabilities by displaying network graphs against digital maps, showing the actual locations of individual nodes in the field. Additionally, users can view network resources in a logical drawing format detached from geographical context, providing insights into total/available bandwidth, costs, and port usage, especially beneficial for wide area networks.

4
Connection Management

Logical connections inventory stores information on connections set up for the operator’s own needs, leased to customers, or leased from other vendors. Users can track connection routes, channels, and status, along with associated customer details and contracts, streamlining connection setup and management processes. Automated diagram generation further optimizes the distribution of information on connections and connection nodes, enhancing network management efficiency.
