Cisc Preemptive Service Service Summary Cisc Preemptive Service is a package f services that targets a high level f service fr Custmers netwrks thrugh real-time mnitring, analysis and recmmendatins. This flexible package allws the Custmer t select amngst three tiers f service ffers: 1) Base Package; 2) Standard Package; r 3) Advanced Package. Within the Brderless/NGN technlgy, Netwrk Mdeling capability is als available (ptinally), as a service t address capacity planning needs, and predict netwrk behavir during failure cnditins r ther changes t the netwrk r the traffic it is carrying. Cisc Respnsibilities The Cisc Preemptive Service will build upn Cisc s Fundatin Technlgy Service Prvider Optimizatin Service r Netwrk Optimizatin Service ( NOS ), as applicable. The Cisc Preemptive Service cnsists f varius packages and General Supprt as described belw, which Cisc shall prvide fr the Custmer s Netwrk during Standard Business Hurs (unless stated therwise). General Supprt Cisc shall prvide the fllwing general supprt fr all Service mdules selected by the Custmer under the Cisc Preemptive Service ffering: Designate an engineer ( Netwrk Cnsulting Engineer ) t act as the primary interface with the custmer, alng with a Cisc prject manager appinted fr the Custmer.

Nte that majr netwrk changes may require re-scping f the service. Preemptive Service Packages Base Package The Base Package ffers the basic level f supprt, which includes device level Key Perfrmance Indicatrs (KPI) mnitring and analysis. Mre specifically, the fllwing activities are perfrmed: Device level fault management that includes syslg & trap mnitring, and tp-event and tp-talker analytics Device level perfrmance management that includes mnitring f device KPIs (CPU, memry, interface, temperature etc.), set up f KPI threshlds as per Cisc best practices and Custmer specified bjectives, and trend analysis Device-level availability management such as device uptime and redundancy checks. Device-level capacity management including 30-60-90 day frecasting f device capacity KPIs Standard Package The Standard Package ffers netwrk level mnitring and analysis. Activities under this package include the fllwing: Base Package tasks described abve Fault trending reprts by time, by netwrk hierarchy, by frequency & by lcatin Netwrk-level perfrmance analysis including cntrl plane KPIs such as BGP, OSPF, ISIS, STP, MPLS-TE etc. Netwrk-level availability analysis such as cntrl plane (MPLS L2VPN, L3VPN availability and neighbr uptime. 30-60-90 day frecasting f netwrk capacity KPIs Access t web-based prtal, which prvides a custmized view with real-time data related t Custmer s infrastructure in scpe. Advanced Package The Advanced Package includes netwrk service level mnitring and analysis. Basic activities under Advanced Package include the fllwing: Standard Package tasks described abve Service-level perfrmance analysis and reprting such as latency, jitter, packet lss fr a specific class f service and site-t-site matrix view. 30-60-90 day frecasting f service layer capacity KPIs such as queue length. Netwrk Mdeling (Optin) As an ptin under the Advanced Package fr Brderless/NGN technlgy based netwrks, Netwrk Mdeling service is available. Netwrk Mdeling service prvides netwrk level visibility int traffic paths taken by different service traffic types such as vice, vide, Wi-Fi etc t allw Custmer t understand and predict netwrk behavir. Sme f the key activities under Netwrk Mdeling service are listed belw.
