MODE DEFINITIONS

OCM

OCM | On-Click Monitoring


The end user launches the service stress test himself provisioned by SDI server. A user-friendly interface is provided with the OCM mode. It
performs service tests, displays information in real time and records the KPIs. The KPIs are then uploaded through HTTP/HTTPS to SDI server for
post processing analysis.
In terms of user interface, a navigation monitor is available and based on Google maps where the test measurements by technologies are also
displayed. Activity logs are displayed within the application for a quick summary on every measure results. All test case scenario such as, list of
URLs, throughput download and upload scenarios by technologies can be customised remotely by the server.

SLM

SLM | Silent Live Monitoring


This application is always running in background and monitors the customer experience. For instance, when an end-user receives a call,
all network and services KPIs such as call duration, setup time, and call event (drop, fail) are sent to SDI server. In addition a customer
experience questionnaire can be displayed either or not at the end of a service session (voice, web browsing...). Thus, it will provide an
overview of the real customer experience on how your subscribers perceive the quality of your network services.
Moreover, information such as the inventory of device features (e.g. GPS enable or not, storage memory size, number of applications
running in background, battery life information) can be also monitored.

SSM

SSM | Silent Script Monitoring


This application is only running in the background when the back office manager triggers a performance test campaign.
This mode provides a pro-active and always-on automated monitoring solution. For instance, when a problem occurs within the mobile
network on a specific location, the back office manager is able to design a stress test ready to be spread out to any registered Nemo
Qmon. Elected agents are ready to provide related KPIs.
Thanks to SDI, a mobile operator can isolate faults from a central site and diagnose customer problems more precisely when linked
either or not to probe systems.

SERVICE DEFINITIONS

APPLICATIONS

Service that uses as the main information the name of an application. An application is a software installed on the User Equipment to
execute a specific task or answer a specific need. Nemo CEM Solution only monitors applications that use the broadband between the
User Equipment and the Mobile Operator Network.

DATA CONNECTION

This service refers to all connections that have been set up to transfer data between User Equipment and a Network, wireless or not.
Wired Networks are only available for Windows Phone. It monitors if the connection have been set up and closed well or if an anomaly
has occurred.

DATA FTP

It refers to active data tests (OCM and SSM modes) using the FTP protocols. These tests are done by downloading or uploading a file of
a specific size to or from a defined URL. They depend on the technology used to do the test because parameters can change from a
technology to another. Parameters that can be configures are for each technology: the file size, the direction (upload or download), the
URL, the timeout and the scenario that will be played during the test (number of downloads and uploads).

DATA HTTP

It refers to active data tests (OCM and SSM modes) using the HTTP protocols. These tests are done by downloading or uploading a file
of a specific size to or from a defined URL. They depend on the technology used to do the test because parameters can change from a
technology to another. Parameters that can be configures are for each technology: the file size, the direction (upload or download), the
URL, the timeout and the scenario that will be played during the test (number of downloads and uploads).

DATA SESSION

A Data Session is a passive monitoring Session in SLM during which a threshold of packets has been exchanged in downlink and uplink
between the User Equipment and the Network. Thresholds can be configured in the Monitoring Engine under the throughput service for
the following parameters: inactive period, active period, min DL size to be OK, min UL size to be OK.

SERVICE DEFINITIONS

EMAIL

This service is monitoring if an email has been properly sent or received.

ISHO

This service is gathering information on technology and location when an ISHO is occurring only while the phone was on idle mode. This
way, we avoid gathering ISHO on specific parameters: for instance the MNO could have decided to switch all voice calls in 2G no matter
the technology available before the call. By gathering the ISHO on idle mode only, we are sure to collect information that were not
meant to change on specific network parameters.

MMS

This service is monitoring if a MMS has been properly sent or received, either on passive mode or by using an active mode.

PING

Ping Service that focus on the idle round-trip delay time value.

SMS
