Common use of Remote Access Facility Clause in Contracts

Remote Access Facility. 33.10.1 For the SBC-SWBT region, CLEC must access the following OSS interfaces via a SWBT Remote Access Facility (LRAF) located in Dallas, Texas: R-EASE; B-EASE; EDI-Ordering (via EDI Interactive Agent); EDI-PreOrdering (via EDI Interactive Agent or CORBA); SORD; Electronic Bonding/Trouble Administration “EB/TA”; Toolbar Trouble Administration; EBTA- GUI; Enhanced Verigate, WebLEX, and ▇▇▇▇ Information. Connection to the LRAF will be established via a “port” either through dial-up or direct connection as described in Section 33.10.4. 33.10.2 In PACIFIC and NEVADA regions, CLEC must access the following OSS interfaces via a Pacific Remote Access Facility (PRAF) located in Fairfield, California: EDI- Ordering (via EDI/SSL); EDI-PreOrdering (via EDI/SSL or CORBA); SORD; Electronic Bonding/Trouble Administration (via EB/TA); Toolbar; Enhanced Verigate; WebLEX; and PBSM. Connection to the PRAF will be established via a “port” either through dial-up or direct connection as described in Section 33.10.4; provided, however, that CLEC may, at its option, interface with PACIFIC’s EDI ordering application as described above through SBC’s Local Remote Access Facility (“LRAF”). If CLEC chooses to use the LRAF for electronic orders, all CLEC EDI orders must be transmitted to the LRAF and none may be sent via the PRAF. 33.10.3 In the Ameritech region, CLEC must access the following OSS interfaces via an Ameritech Remote Access Facility (ARAF) located in Chicago, Illinois. EDI-Ordering; Electronic Bonding/Trouble Administration (via EB/TA); Toolbar; Enhanced Verigate; and WebLEX Connection to the ARAF will be established via a “port” either through dial-up or direct connection as described in Section 33.10.4; provided, however, that CLEC may, at its option, interface with SBC- AMERITECH’s EDI ordering application as described above through SBC’s Local Remote Access Facility (“LRAF”).

The demarcation point shall be the router interface at the RAF. Switched Access “Dial-up Connections” require CLEC to provide its own modems and connection to the SBCRAF. CLEC shall pay the cost of the call if Switched Access is used. 33.10.5 For SBC-13STATE, CLEC shall use TCP/IP to access SBC-13STATE OSS via an SBC RAF. In addition, CLEC shall have at least one unique public-registered Internet Protocol (IP) network address subnet per region. CLEC shall maintain a user-id / password unique to each individual for accessing an SBC-13STATE OSS on CLEC’s behalf. CLEC shall provide estimates regarding its volume of transactions, number of concurrent users, desired number of private line or dial- up (switched) connections, and length of a typical session. 33.10.6 For SBC-13STATE, CLEC shall attend and participate in implementation meetings to discuss CLEC RAF access plans in detail and schedule testing of such connections. 33.10.7 For SBC-13STATE region, CLEC may use a private line connection. CLEC shall provide and maintain own router and CSU/DSU. 33.10.8 For dedicated RAF locations (e.g. LRAF, PRAF, ARAF, and SRAF) if CLEC wants to establish connectivity for the first time, or if CLEC wants to upgrade their existing connection, then SBC will provide specifications for connecting to the new dedicated RAF facility. CLEC connections to any other facility within the SBC-13STATE service areas will become grandfathered and no new CLEC connections will be made to such non-dedicated facilities.
