2   BCE Provisioning Solution

2.1   Overview

An overview of the provisioning flow for BCE is shown in Figure 1.

• BSS – Initiates the provisioning request towards Dynamic Activation.
• Dynamic Activation – A provisioning system that provides a single provisioning interface towards the Business Support System (BSS), by hiding the complexities of provisioning multiple underlying network elements.
• BCE – A node in the Ericsson IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) network that offers a unique unified collaboration and multimedia experience to the enterprise segment and provides conferencing services, company group services, Enterprise Value-Added Services (EVAS), and corporate directory services.
• UP – Unified Provisioning (UP) web service is based on SOAP 1.1. SOAP uses an Internet application layer protocol as a transport protocol, such as Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) or HTTP.

There can be more than one BCE node included in an NE cluster. All nodes are used for BCE provisioning following the ActiveActive cluster strategy.

For more information about the configuration of ActiveActive cluster strategy and Dynamic Activation in the deployment, refer to Configuration Manual for Resource Activation, Reference [3].
