The pre-configured NE is a special kind of NE; network management NE configuration is
only saved in the database, but not issued to the actual device. The configuration will be
issued to actual network device when switch pre-configured NE to non-pre-configured NE.
The role of pre-configuration is to take service configuration without devices so as to issue
configuration quickly in device connection. To batch services opening or batch devices
upgrade will save a lot of configuration time, improve the configuration efficiency. In addition,
pre-configuration can test the configuration correctness in order to reduce configuration errors
without device connection.
You can start the pre-configuration function of NView NNM management software in the
early building of the network and take pre-configuration to the nonexistent NE.
