Interface system for integrated monitoring and management of network devices in a telecommunication network

摘要

A graphical user interface (GUI) system is provided for managing and controlling multiple network devices and client applications in a telecommunications network. The GUI system provides an integrated environment in which a user sends instructions and data to the network devices and client applications and receives back data related to status of the network devices and client applications. The integrated environment allows the user to access many window screens which are all tied into one main window. The many window screens provide options for commands and views of data related to various areas of management and control of the telecommunications network. The one main window provides a point of reference so that the user does not have to log onto various systems numerous times or use different terminals dependent upon which command or data the user desires to send or receive. Training and operational time and costs are thus reduced from prior art systems.
