  • Images

Image of the telco equipment. You can select the image to see a preview in a separate page.

  • Relations

Relationship with the associated network inventories. The Relations section shows all the child hierarchies that are associated with the telco equipment. You can only view the relations in the workspace.

Note: This tab is available only for the Telco Equipment form.

Connection elements

List of the connection elements that are added for the logical connections. These elements should be the valid logical connections between the sites when the computation performs the path search. After creating a connection element, a relationship is created between the logical or physical connection and the next element under its default relationship type. To learn more about the connection element fields, see Connection Element form.

Note:

  • This tab is available only for the logical connections.
  • The relationship gets updated if its connection element is modified or deleted. For example, the relationship gets deleted if you delete its connection element. To change the default relationship type, navigate to System Definition > Decision tables > TNI CI Relationship Definition Policy, and under Decision table, update the CI Relationship Type against the CI class.
Inventory NumbersList of the inventory numbers that are associated with your network inventory. To learn more about the number elements, see Define your inventory numbering.Note: This tab is available only for the Inventory Number form.
