OmniVista 3600 Features

OmniVista 3600 is a powerful tool and easy-to-use network operations system that manages Alcatel-Lucent

wireless, wired, and remote access networks, as well as wired and wireless infrastructures from a wide range of

third-party manufacturers. With its easy-to-use interface, OmniVista 3600 provides real-time monitoring, proactive

alerts, historical reporting, and fast, efficient troubleshooting. It also offers tools that manage RF coverage,

strengthen wireless security, and demonstrate regulatory compliance.

Alcatel-Lucent OAW-IAPs communicate with OmniVista 3600 using the using the HTTPS protocol. This allows an

OmniVista 3600 server to be deployed in the cloud across a NAT device, such as a router. This OmniVista 3600

features available in the AOS-W Instant network are described in the following sections.

Image Management

OmniVista 3600 allows you to manage firmware updates on WLAN devices by defining a minimum acceptable

firmware version for each make and model of a device. It remotely distributes the firmware image to the WLAN

devices that require updates, and it schedules the firmware updates such that updating is completed without

requiring you to manually monitor the devices.

The following models can be used to upgrade the firmware:

l Automatic— In this model, the Virtual Controller periodically checks for newer updates from a configured URL and

automatically initiates upgrade of the network.

l Manual— In this model, the user can manually start a firmware upgrade for each Virtual Controller or set the

desired firmware preference per group of devices.

IAP and Client Monitoring

OmniVista 3600 allows you to find any OAW-IAP or client on the wireless network and to see real-time monitoring

views. These monitoring views can be used to aggregate critical information and high-end monitoring information.

In the OmniVista 3600 User Interface (UI), you can select either Manage Read/Write or Monitor-

only+Firmware Upgrades as management modes. When the Management level is set to Manage

Read/Write, the Instant UI is in read-only mode. If Airwave Management Level is set to Monitor-

only+Firmware Upgrades mode, the Instant UI changes to the read-write mode.

Template-based Configuration

OmniVista 3600 automatically creates a configuration template based on any of the existing OAW-IAPs, and it

applies that template across the network as shown in the following figure. It audits every device on an ongoing basis

to ensure that configurations never vary from the enterprise policies. It alerts you whenever a violation is detected

and automatically repairs the incorrectly configured devices.
