name: NML
full_form: Network Management Layer
context: The NML has the responsibility for the management of a network as supported by the EML, includes the management aspects of any management entity which implements E-OSF. At this layer, functions addressing the management of a wide geographical area are located. Complete visibility of the whole network is typical and, as an objective, a technology independent view should be provided to the SML. The NML has the following four principal roles: 1) Control and coordination of the network view of all Network Elements within its scope or domain. 2) Provision, cessation or modification of network capabilities for the support of service to customers. 3) Maintenance of network capabilities. 4) Maintaining statistical, log and other data about the network and interact with the SML on performance, usage, availability, etc. Thus, the NML provides the functionality to manage a network by coordinating activity across the network and supports the "network" demands made by the SML. It knows what
description: The Network Management Layer (NML) is responsible for managing a wide geographical area of the network, providing complete visibility and a technology-independent view to the Service Management Layer (SML). It controls and coordinates the network view of all Network Elements within its scope or domain.
explanation: Based on the context from 3GPP TS 32.819, section 5.2, NML is classified as a Network entity due to its role in managing a wide geographical area of the network, controlling and coordinating Network Elements, and providing a technology-independent view.
