Subject/title: Monitoring and Control Interface for Infrastructure Equipment (Power, Cooling and Building Environment Systems used in Telecommunication Networks) - Generic Interface
Status: Under study 
Approval process: AAP
Type of work item: Recommendation
Version: New
Equivalent number: RES/EE-02105 (Twin)
Timing: 2025 (Medium priority)
Liaison: ETSI TC EE / EE2, 3GPP SA5, NGMN
Supporting members: Huawei, Ericsson, Telecom Italia,
Summary: This Recommendation will describe the generic monitoring and control interface for infrastructure equipment. The document should follow a two-stage approach: a. protocol-independent information modeling b. protocol-specific data modeling e.g. in YAML/JSON Beside the existing The present document applies to monitoring and control of Infrastructure Environment i.e. power, cooling and building environment systems for telecommunication centres and access network locations; also the monitoring energy and environmental parameters for ICT equipment in telecommunications sites or datacenter or customer premises are considered. Interoperability of heterogeneous management interfaces and systems with multi-vendor equipment is the key issue. The present document gives a general approach from equipment to management system. The multi-part deliverable is composed of a generic core part (the present document) and several specific parts for equipment category. The core document defines: • The site equipment maps and its division in functional subsets e.g. DC system which introduces part 2 and following parts of this multi-part deliverable. • The generic set of exchanged information required at the interface of equipment, which is instanced for each equipment subset in part 2 and following parts of this multi-part deliverable. • The minimum requirement for network architecture allowing some compatibility with old existing interface and the mechanism to exchange data between network element. • The data interface protocol for remote or local site management (Machine to Machine Interface MMI) and Human Machine Interface HMI for monitoring and controlling. • Recommendations for sure management network such as dependability, data back-up, data coherence and synchronization all along the management network, response time, fault detection and partial service in case of failure. • The Measurement accuracy of Power, Energy and Environmental parameters (PEE). concept an extended PEE concept will be introduced to integrate all data originated by infrastructure equipment, which are not described by or part of the PEE concept. This will be done mainly together with the modernization of the “hierarchic rule” and of the description of “standard elements of any equipment, system or subsystem”.
Comment: Work item jointly developed with ETSI TC EE to become a technically aligned deliverable.
