1. INTRODUCTION
From the edge of the Service Provider network, CoSines IPSX Service Processing Switches deliver scalable customized IP services that generate new revenue streams while minimizing capital and operational costs.
CoSines IPSX Family marries switching, routing and computing capabilities with a flexible operating system to deliver scalable customized IP services at multi gigabit line rates from the edge of a Service Providers (SPs) network.
The IPSX Family includes two switches: the 26-slot IPSX 9500 Service Processing Switch and the 8-slot IPSX 3500 Service Processing Switch. Both IPSX switches can be configured with any combination of CoSines dual-slot IP Service Generators (IPSGs) to deliver CoSines full IP Services Suite from Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) and firewall to URL filtering and Network Address Translation (NAT).
CoSine has been working with Wipro since June 2003, where Wipro is contributing to the sustenance and enhancement of IPSX software. Refer SoW version 1.1.
This statement of work (SOW) describes the details of ownership of TAC and QA activities of IPSX 3500 & IPSX 9500 from Oct 2004- Dec 2005. There will be a team of 6 people dedicated for TAC/QA activities during this period. From July Dec of 2005 6 people from the existing engineering team will move to the TAC/QA team, making 12 team members between July 2005 Dec 2005. The engineering support between Oct 04 June 05 is covered as a part of the earlier SOW signed between Cosine and Wipro dated June 2004.
The scope of the project involves handling of TAC (24*7) and QA activities of releases which are currently deployed in the field including bond, pasta and saboo. TAC activities include handling of customer calls/queries, reporting technical problems, reproducing technical problems, releasing fixes/patch builds to customers & RMA activities support. CoSine would be responsible for the actual hardware (blades, cards etc.) deployment to the customers. QA activities include preparing test plans, black box testing of IPSX software for patch releases to customers, reporting technical problems and verifying fixes in the patch releases.
Hardware support activities are out of scope of CIDC & would continue to be handled by Cosine staff. Wipro would not be responsible for any failure of deliverables to the customers due to failure of hardware support. The migration support of customers from IPSX to other platforms is also out of scope CIDC. The customer reported problems in the following areas would not be handled by CIDC.
