Network Configuration Management Platform

The Oracle Communications Policy Management Network Configuration Management Platform provides centralized management for systems containing multiple CMP servers.
Restriction: The use of this function is restricted to specific environments and should not be enabled without authorization.
This configuration is a leveled configuration that uses two types of CMP servers: The NW-CMP server manages the entire system by managing one or more S-CMP servers. The NW-CMP sends configuration updates to the S-CMP servers and the S-CMP configures MPE and MRA devices.

The NW-CMP server configures Network level objects. Examples of network level objects are policies, network elements, and configuration templates. After the network level objects are configured on the NW-CMP, the objects are distributed to S-CMP servers. On the S-CMP the network level objects can be associated with MRA or MPE servers. Network level objects cannot be created, modified, or deleted on S-CMP servers.

The S-CMP servers configure system level objects. System level objects are MPE and MRA devices. These objects are used to apply configurations to individual servers. The MPE and MRA configurations can change individual server configuration parameters or associate network level objects with an MPE or MRA device. Figure 1 shows the structure of a Network Configuration Management Platform system.
