Abstract :
This article provides a road map to understand the GSM operation, administration, and maintenance (OA&M) management. We describe, how the telecommunication management network (TMN) concept is applied to the GSM OA&M. The home location registration and call recording management are used as examples to illustrate how GSM OA&M functions can be implemented under the TMN platform
