Optionally, Netcool/Precision TN can be configured to work with Netcool/OMNIbus,
enabling an operator to view a visualization of an NE, indicating precisely where a specific
alarm occurred. See Figure 3 for a graphical representation of the system components.
Netcool/Precision TN server
The Netcool/Precision TN server implements discovery, inventory, fault management, can
handle connections to SNMP (if so configured) and TL1 NEs, and provides logging, user
authentication, and other server functions.
Network Pilot client
Network Pilot is Netcool/Precision TN's web-based management client. Network Pilot
provides an easy-to-use graphical interface for managing NEs and security. As
Netcool/Precision TN is integrated with Netcool/OMNIbus, it can be used to add complete
inventory, facility, and connection data to Netcool/OMNIbus alerts so that operators can
locate, diagnose, and solve network problems more easily.
Network Pilot enables the following features:
Asset Visibility and Reconciliation:
Discover all the NEs in the network
View the NEs, their inventory information and their properties
