links. This report lists the measurements for all calls, intercom calls,
incoming trunk calls, outgoing trunk calls, and tandem calls for each port
network.
All of these measurements are accessible to an external host via the operation
support system interface.
G3 Management Applications Reports and Data
Acquisition Utilities
Through the G3-Management Applications, which run on UNIXWARE-based per-
sonal computers, DEFINITY ECS supports reporting and data acquisition not
available through the switch-based reports. This supports the consolidation and
formatting functions that large organizations need. When excess data surpass a
multiple-screen display capability, the ranging, sorting, and filtering capability
provided by standard report-generation programs allows to restrict reports to
only the desired data. The data acquisition feature supports two capabilities:
■ The ability to collect data from the switch via the operation support system
interface
■ The ability to use personal computer-based software, such as standard
database programs or report-generation packages, to create custom
reports from G3-Management Applications
For the G3-Management Applications reporting capability, data from selected
switch-based reports is accessible on the G3-Management Applications in stan-
dard personal computer file format (such as ASCII G3-Management Applica-
tions). G3-Management Applications reporting allows you to do the following:
■ Create files of switch data on the personal computer in a format
compatible with available report-generation programs, such as Informix.
■ Substitute the DEFINITY ECS-generated field headers with
customer-defined headers
■ Administer the file format, including which character to use as a field
separator (space, comma, etc.) and which characters to use as a field
value delimiter (quotes, no character, etc.)
ECS Reports Generator
The ECS Reports Generator is an easy to use, graphical reporting tool that does
the following:
■ Maintains a location database of all the systems managed (in addition to
the DEFINITY ECS, it supports Lucent Technologies System 75, G1 and
G3 systems)
■ Provides automated connections via pre-defined scripts to the various
systems
