2 Avaya Network Management Applications and Device Managers Installation Guide
• Network Management Tools - Includes applications that help
you manage your network as a whole. These applications allow
you to monitor switching, configure VLANs, set up rules to
enhance quality of service, and perform other important network
tasks. For more information about network-wide applications,
refer to “
Network Management Tools” on page 7.
• Network Management Framework - Avaya Network
Management Applications and Device Managers run within the
“framework” of a network management application. The
framework management application provides easy access to
Device Managers and Network Management Applications. It also
provides a view of your entire network.
a. You can use HP OpenView NNM as the framework. This is
called running Avaya Network Management in HP-OV NNM
Mode. In this mode, the framework also provides an overall
view of the multi-vendor network to the network
administrator and defines the scope of the network to Avaya
Network Management applications.
b. Alternatively, Avaya Network Management can be run in
Standalone Mode. Avaya Network Management Console
provides an overall view of the network of Avaya’s LAN and
backbone switches, Avaya Wireless Access Points, Avaya
Media Servers, Avaya IP phones, and other devices in the
network. Avaya Network Management applications can be
launched from Avaya Network Management Console. Avaya
Network Management Console also provides a discovery
service, trap logs, and other important information to the
Network Management applications.
c. Avaya Network Management can be installed in both HP-OV
NNM Mode and Standalone Mode on a single computer.
However, only one mode can be active at any given time. For
more information on installing and running multiple modes
of Avaya Network Management, refer to Chapter 5,

Avaya Network Management in Multiple Modes
