What the data for this category looks like
Data sources for communication equipment intelligent due diligence reports include carrier operation and maintenance management systems, device SNMP collection interfaces, and third-party communication equipment operation and maintenance platforms. Data is split into two categories: configuration metadata, and real-time operating status and alert data. Configuration metadata updates infrequently. Operating status and alert data are synchronized per collection cycle or pushed in real time. Documents are stored in structured JSON or CSV format, and include four core fields: device identification, hardware parameters, operating status, and alert information. Field units include Mbps, %, GB, and other standard units. Some fields require matching corresponding unit rules based on device model.
What constraints these characteristics impose on HTTP interface and external system integrations
The multi-source nature of communication equipment data requires external system integrations to support either multi-interface polling or webhook push. There are many structured fields and complex unit variations, so field mapping and unit conversion rules must be configured to avoid unit confusion in due diligence reports. When importing batch data, an overly large single batch size can cause interface timeouts, so submissions must be split into shards. Real-time alert data requires low-latency pushing, and cannot rely solely on scheduled polling. Otherwise, alert delays will occur. Additionally, due diligence reports must cover historical data, so interfaces must support parameter configuration for pulling data within a specified time range.
How to configure settings
| Configuration Item | Recommended Setting | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
external_api_batch_size | 50-100 items/request | Communication equipment data has many fields per item. An overly large batch size will cause interface timeouts |
field_mapping_strategy | Match by field name | Communication equipment data field naming conventions are inconsistent. Field name matching is used to complete mapping directly |
data_unit_conversion_enabled | Enabled | Device data includes multiple unit types such as Mbps, %, and GB. Conversion to the standard units for due diligence reports is required |
webhook_retry_times | 3 times | Alert data pushing is vulnerable to network fluctuations. Limited retries are configured to avoid data loss |
PARSE_FILE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS | 600 seconds | Importing full batches of communication equipment data takes a long time. Parsing timeout must be extended |
api_request_content_type | application/json | Most third-party operation and maintenance platforms output JSON format data. This adapts to common interface formats |
The parameter values provided on this page are common starting points for configuration. Actual values are affected by material form, data volume, and business rules. Specific issues require individual analysis. It is recommended to test on your own samples before finalizing settings.
Three common configuration mistakes
- Phenomenon: External interface calls return
413 Request Entity Too Large. Cause: Theexternal_api_batch_sizeconfiguration was not adjusted. The single-submission communication equipment data volume exceeds the interface's receiving limit. - Phenomenon: Communication equipment data sets remain in indexing for a long time after import. Logs show parsing timeout errors. Cause: The
PARSE_FILE_TIMEOUT_SECONDSconfiguration duration was not extended. Batch structured data was not processed into shards. - Phenomenon: After internal deployment, external services continuously report errors and restart. Logs prompt connection failures. Cause: An internally accessible API address was not configured, and access permissions for the corresponding port were not opened. This prevents external systems from calling the interface normally.
How to confirm successful configuration
- Call the test interface to submit a single communication equipment data entry. Check that the return status code is
200 OKto confirm interface connectivity meets configuration requirements. - Check the data set indexing progress. Confirm that data parsing time meets the configured timeout threshold, and there are no persistent timeout error logs.
- Check field mapping results. Confirm that the units and field names of communication equipment data have been converted and matched according to the configuration.
- Simulate alert data pushing. Confirm that the webhook interface can normally receive and synchronize data, and there are no retry failure logs.
