The above CORBA 5620 OSS module is part of Alcatel's Network Manager (manages network faults and has a dynamic topology view of a managed network). The module makes network topology information available through a network CORBA interface using IOR files and the like. We need this topology information to do fault event correlation i.e. link A-B is down due to power failure so all faults received by Netcool Omnibus is a symptom of a power problem. The CORBA interface can be written in Perl using the COPE module but I was hoping to hear from someone that already had an interface (module) written for this.
