The support of ENodeB devices into ITNM via the Samsung USM collector.

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

In our commitment to fostering an inclusive and forward-thinking technological environment, I respectfully request the integration of support for eNodeB devices—managed via the Samsung USM network element manager platform, into the IBM Tivoli Network Manager (ITNM) application. As you know, eNodeB devices serve as the base stations in LTE networks, playing a critical role in wireless access and forming a foundational element in the evolution toward advanced 5G telecommunications technology.  Implementing this enhancement through the Samsung USM Discovery Collector module of ITNM will not only support our progressive move towards evolutionary technologies like 5G but will also enhance network topology-based alarm correlation, ensuring a more precise and responsive network management system.
