Provides topology discovery, alarm handling, trend charts, inventory reports, and end-to-end service provisioning for up to seven-hundred Lynx elements. Windows and Linux clients connect to the same server, and pay-as-you-grow licences let operators add users or expand network size when needed.
Note: Actual capacity depends on server sizing, licence tier, and database settings.
LightWatch shows the hierarchy of all nodes in the network and keeps an accurate inventory of cards, chassis and licences. It captures fifteen-minute and daily performance statistics from every element, stores them in a MySQL database and presents trend graphs or CSV exports on demand. Administrators can schedule software downloads, configuration uploads and licence updates for groups of devices, then track the results without leaving the main window. A distributed client-server design supports both Windows and Linux workstations and maintains service resilience even if a site loses connectivity.
LightWatch keeps an up-to-date inventory of every chassis, card, optic and licence, then stores fifteen-minute and daily counters for utilisation, error rates and optical levels in a MySQL database. Users display these data in trend graphs or export them as CSV files for audits and capacity planning.
The software auto-discovers new elements and draws them on a live map, while engineers can add manual links or overlay background images to clarify fibre routes between data-centre halls, metro rings, regional hubs and long-haul shelters.
LightWatch retains up to thirty days of events, raises audible or email alerts when thresholds are crossed and lets users filter logs by node, wavelength or time window to speed root-cause analysis and reduce the risk of extended outages.
A built-in wizard provisions end-to-end services, shows their path and status and highlights any detected faults. The same interface schedules software downloads, configuration uploads and licence updates for chosen device groups, reducing manual effort and error risk while keeping service data safe even if a site link drops.
A distributed architecture allows both Windows and Linux workstations to connect.
All configuration, performance and inventory data are stored in a resilient MySQL back-end.
The application captures fifteen-minute and daily performance counters from every network element.
Yes. Routine tasks can be scheduled through calendar-based workflows that target groups of devices, reducing manual effort and risk of error.
