Feature Overview

The following table gives an overview over the features the solutions that were presented in the last sections offer. Since OC3MON with NeTraMet Statistics Module basically is an OC3MON with NeTraMet as interface, it does of course offer more or less the same features as the standard NeTraMet does. However there are some restrictions due to the fact that the RFC1483 ATM OC3 link is not usable for the same kinds of encapsulations as a standard ethernet would be. Therefore, this solution is presented in a separate column of Table 3.2.
