ABSTRACT:
To support communications system repairability, a scalable multi-level data bit stream, capable of supporting variable bandwidth ATM network access, includes an embedded operation channel used by a transport network management system to support connection maintenance, performance monitoring, path tracing, service management and testing functionalities. The transport network management system effectuates a service specific convergence sub-layer functionality to convert between Common Management Information Protocol (CMIP) formatted operation and maintenance managed objects and a message format for the embedded operation channel data. The conversion comprises a Remote Operations Service Element (ROSE) encapsulation, with the encapsulated data incorporated within the embedded operation channel of the multi-level data bit stream. An interface is provided with the ATM network through an ATM adaptation layer to segment the multi-level data bit stream into a plurality of ATM cells. Operation and maintenance message communication with the transport network management system is provided for both wireless and wireline communications systems accessing the ATM network.
