We see a lot of interest among enterprises in ITIL for IT service management, which I'm guessing would overlap the FCAPS framework. Is anyone investing it for the SP side? (what's ITIL? - http://www.ogc.gov.uk/index.asp?id=2261) Irwin

Seems the latest cluster of hype is around (e)TOM from the TMF, much more than strict FCAPS etc. On 11/9/04 1:13 AM, "Sean Donelan" <sean () donelan com> wrote:On Mon, 8 Nov 2004, Hannigan, Martin wrote:Does the FCAPS model still hold currency among network managers/engineers today?What's FCAPS?I suppose that answers the question whether FCAPS holds currency among network managers/engineers. It is an ITU-T developed network management model composed of Fault, Configuration, Accounting, Performance, Security (FCAPS). Some people think it is a mandatory specification for how to manage a network; other people think it is an antiquated view of telecom network management; and yet other people think it is as relevant as the ISO 7-layer network model.The information transmitted is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential, proprietary, and/or privileged material.
