OneEmbedded Telecommunications Management Network (TMN) Solutions

9. The Softswitch/Media Gateway Controller

Though creating an embedded TMN agent by hand is a daunting task, there are tools that exist to automate part or all of the process, making embedded TMN agent development much simpler and more manageable. These agents are used in the real telecommunications world and are employed on many different kinds of devices, from synchronous optical network (SONET) multiplexers to central office (CO) switches. The growing number of tool kits available has made them a more viable option than using a mediation device, with decreased cost and increased features, benefits, and performance.
