ABSTRACT:
A telecommunications network is provided. The network includes at least one service delivery unit having a data port and a network interface port and a memory that stores data for managing the telecommunications network. The network interface port is coupled to a switch fabric. The data port is coupleable to at least one local area network. A network management station is communicatively coupled to the service delivery unit. The at least one service delivery unit is configurable to allow the network management station to view selected portions of the data in the memory of the at least one service delivery unit to facilitate management of selected aspects of the service delivery unit.
