Dear friend!
The functional features, cross-connect capacity, and the number of boards, ports, or channels are specific to the NE types. As such, the number of NEs that the NMS can manage depends on the types of NEs in the networks. To simplify the description and calculation of the management capability, the concept of equivalent NE was defined so that NEs of different types or a number of ports can be converted to equivalent NEs by uniform criteria according to the system resources that they require. The system resources required by an equivalent NE are equal to the resources for managing an STM-1 transport NE.
Equivalent coefficient: Equivalent coefficient = (Resources used by physical NEs or ports)/(Resources used by equivalent NEs)
As demonstrated by the results of objective testing conducted on the U2000 in different types of environments, a single U2000 can manage a maximum of 20,000 physical NEs or 30,000 equivalent NEs. The management capacity is 20,000 physical NEs if they equal fewer than 30,000 equivalent NEs. The management capacity is 30,000 equivalent NEs if physical NEs equal more than 30,000 equivalent NEs. The U2000 supports concurrent logins of 200 clients
