Last Lucent, Bell Labs, Assignment:
MTS Engineer in SONET Network Navigator Software Development  Group At MV: 

     
    • SNN RoseRt Model - a beginning, reusing and expanding on the ONN model: 
      • Network Outage Scenarios 
      • ONN Network Emulator: DRAFT Plan for developing 
      • ONN Network Emulator: DRAFT Design containing:
        • Logging/trace messages for emulator exercising,
        • Design of GUI Display Windows on each PC and GUI capsule within Signaling.
      • ONN Network Emulator: ONN Instance PC GUI display of time-stamped signaling messages over a socket connection.
        • Emulator Server  - takes a socket request on port 2660, then creates a GUI Display Window for the requesting client.  Each message received over the socket is relayed to the GUI Display Window.
        • GUI Display Window:  - spawned by the Emulator Server.  It opens a file for storing text relayed by the Emulator Server and concurrently writes to the file and displays the text on a scrolling window.
        The concept is that each of 10 NN instances on a PC will open a socket to the Emulator Server and send timestamped event information to the server, which relays it to the appropriate GUI display window for customer event viewing and file logging.
         
      • ONN Network Emulator: DRAFT Proposal for Performance Benchmarking Program 
      • ONN Network Emulator: Boot NNEM remotely from a control PC
        • Put this in the folder containing onnvxsim and run this on each PC that will run ONN instances: 
        • Edit according to configuration needs and run this on the control PC, to boot all needed instances: 
    • White paper on RoseRt, from Rational, that explains the modeling constructs (recommended reading)
