Who will configure and support the WVN equipment?
All of the WVN equipment will be remotely configured and managed by the WVN Support Centre. The status of the equipment will be monitored 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Full IP access will be required by the WVN Support Centre to all WVN equipment: the CODEC, Gatekeeper/Proxy and Switch, through the MAN access router. The WVN equipment must therefore be left switched on at all times. Institutions are not expected to configure and manage the WVN equipment.
