Abstract

PURPOSE: A message outputting method of an exchange is provided to change messages necessary for operating and preserving the exchange into proper formats, and to transmit the messages to an operator terminal through an MMS(Man Machine Subsystem). Therefore, an operator can effectively perceive system states. Also, it is possible to remove an input delay and a standby time of the operator. CONSTITUTION: A user processor generates messages necessary for operating and preserving an exchange, and transmits the messages to an MMS(Man Machine Subsystem)(201). The MMS decides whether the messages are statistic messages(202). If not, the MMS transmits headers for each message and a message number to an operator terminal, and stores substantial messages in a memory(203). If the received messages are statistic messages, the MMS checks whether outputs of the corresponding messages are limited by an operator(204). If not, the MMS transmits the messages each kind to the operator terminal(205). If outputs of the corresponding messages are limited by the operator, the MMS analyzes the messages, and stores the messages(206). If the operator wants to see the statistic messages, the operator terminal outputs the formatted statistic messages by using a new window(207). If the operator wants to see the limited messages, the operator terminal outputs the limited messages each corresponding message(208). If the operator releases an output limit of the messages, the messages received from the MMS are transmitted to the operator terminal through an LAN(Local Area Network)(209).

Description

How to output a message at the exchange {METHOD FOR DISPLAYING MESSAGE IN AN EXCHANGE}

The present invention relates to a message output method of the exchange, and in particular, the operator through the man machine subsystem (hereinafter abbreviated as MMS) messages such as status, alarm, fault (fault) necessary for the operation preservation of the exchange It is about how to make output to the terminal.

Typically, the exchange sends messages, such as status, alarms, defects, etc., necessary for the preservation of its operation, to the operator terminal for confirmation.

At this time, as various messages transmitted from the exchange to the operator terminal are transmitted without any processing, the amount of messages output in the window window of the operator terminal increases, so that the operator could not easily check the statistics message. At the time of the occurrence of the above, the above-mentioned exchange occupies the input / output port, thereby increasing the input waiting time. In particular, among the messages sent from the exchange to the operator terminal, the status messages are the most plural and repetitive messages. Therefore, as these messages are sent to the operator terminal without any processing, the operator has to find and check the messages one by one. there was.

Accordingly, the present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned necessity, and the object thereof is to process a message such as a state, an alarm, a fault, and the like necessary for preserving the operation of the exchange, convert the message into an appropriate format, and transmit the same to an operator terminal through an MMS. The present invention provides a message output method of an exchange.

In the present invention for achieving this object, in the method for outputting the operation message and the message, such as the state, alarm, defects, etc. necessary for preservation to the operator terminal in the present invention, the statistical message that statistics the messages output by the operator is limited A first process of determining whether the message is a message; A second step of analyzing a statistical message and storing the analyzed statistical message in a memory if the message is output restricted in the determining step; If the operator wants to view the statistical message, a third process of reading the statistical message stored in the memory, formatting the transmission into a transmission message and outputting the statistical message to the operator terminal; When the output restriction of the statistical message is released, the fourth step of transmitting the message to the operator terminal without any limitation is characterized in that it consists of.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described an embodiment of the present invention;

1 is a block diagram for performing a message output method of a switch according to the present invention, and includes an operator terminal 10 and a switch 20.

The operator terminal 10 is a terminal operated by the operator, and is connected to the switch 20 by a local area network (LAN) A, and the state necessary for preserving operation of the switch from the switch 20 (for example, board hernia). Receives messages such as state of time, status related to initialization or call processing), alarm, fault, etc. and outputs them for the operator to check.

The exchanger 20 is a block for controlling the user terminal 21 to transmit a message such as a state, an alarm, a fault, or the like necessary for preserving its own operation, to the operator terminal 10. The switch 20 stores the user process 21 and the MMS 23 and the memory 25. Equipped.

The user process 21 is a process that processes various programs in an access switching processor, an interconnect network processor, and a central control processor, and operates by itself. An operation message and a message such as a state, an alarm or a fault necessary for storage are transmitted to the MMS 23.

The MMS 23 receives an operation message from the user process 21 and a message such as a state, an alarm, or a defect required for preservation, and processes the MMS 23 into a format for transmission to an operator terminal 10 in operation. It transmits to the operator terminal 10 through. In addition, the MMS 23 receives an operation message received from the user process 21 and a message such as a state, an alarm, a defect, etc. necessary for preservation, and then the operator terminal 10 if it is not a statistical message that statistics the received messages. ), Only the header and the number of messages for each message are transmitted, and the actual message is transmitted to the memory 25.

The memory 25 stores actual messages received from the MMS 23, that is, operational messages and messages such as conditions, alarms, and defects necessary for preservation.

With reference to the flowchart of Fig. 2, the message output method of the exchange according to the present invention having the above-described configuration will be described in more detail.

First, the user process 21 in the switch 20 generates an operation message operated by itself, and messages such as a state, an alarm, and a defect necessary for preservation, and transmits it to the MMS 23 (step 201).

The MMS 23 receives the operation message from the user process 21 and messages such as a state, an alarm, and a defect required for preservation, and then determines whether the received message is a statistical message (step 202).

If it is not a statistical message in the determination step 202, only the header and the number of messages for each message are transmitted to the operator terminal 10, and the actual message is stored in the memory 25 (step 203). .

If the message received in the determination step 203 is a statistical message, it is checked whether the message is restricted by the operator (step 204).

If not limited by the operator in the check step 204, the operator terminal 10 through the local area network (A) to match the operation message, and the state, such as state, alarm, defects, etc. necessary for preservation for each message type (Step 205).

If the check step 204 is limited by the operator, the messages are analyzed and stored in the memory 25 to fit the message (step 206).

Then, if the operator wants to view the statistics message, the operator terminal 10 outputs the statistics message formatted for the operator to view the statistics message using a new window (step 207).

If the operator wants to see the restricted message, the message is read from the memory 25, and if the message is an alarm, the mounting diagram of the system is configured graphically to differentiate the part of the system where the alarm occurs. In the case of a status message, a graphic can be output for each status message and the message itself is output (step 208).

Thereafter, when the operator removes the output restriction of the message, all messages received from the MMS 23 are transmitted to the operator terminal 10 through the local area network A (step 209).

According to the present invention described above, the amount of messages output to the operator terminal window by processing a message, such as a state, an alarm, a fault, and the like necessary for preserving the operation of the exchange, converting the message into an appropriate format, and transmitting the message to the operator terminal through the MMS. The operator can easily check the messages by reducing the number of messages, and save and process a large number of messages such as statistics and output them to the operator, so that the operator can efficiently grasp the status of the system. Owing to occupying the output port, it can eliminate the delay of input and waiting time of the operator.
