Home > Products > SK-CSA > Specifications Product InformationSwitchKit - Converged Services AdministratorSpecificationsSwitchKit ComponentsSwitchKit consists of five components: Low Level Communications (LLC) – The LLC coordinates and routes all messages between application modules and the Excel platform. Applications interface with the LLC through the SwitchKit API, described below. SwitchKit API – The SwitchKit API facilitates rapid switch-to-application integration by providing a high level interface between the application and the Excel system software. Using C and C++, it supports automatic configuration and redundancy control. The SwitchKit API extracts messages between the application and the LLC, and enables switch configuration from within the application. SwitchManager – The SwitchManager maintains Excel platforms in a state of readiness, and assists developers with initial configuration and dynamic reconfiguration. It monitors alarms and user-defined responses, detecting faults and sending fault notifications. SwitchManager also tracks CPU switchover and automates N+1 redundancy. Converged Services Administrator (CSA) – This real-time switch maintenance and administration tool is a graphical user interface for creating and managing configurations, as well as for monitoring the system and applications. CSA graphically displays the state of the switch, its components, and alarms in real time, enabling users to change states, maintain trunk groups, and manage channels, also in real time. SNMP Extension Agent – The SNMP Extension Agent receives alarms from the Excel platform and converts them into traps that are then forwarded to the customer’s Network Management System. Operating System IndependenceSwitchKit is supported on all major Operating Systems and compilers used in telecommunications. The table below provides details for SwitchKit release 8.3.0.
