NETWORK SERVER SYSTEM & ONBOARD INFORMATION SYSTEM PRESENTATION
General
On the A380, systems are structured within an "avionics world" and an
"open world".
The "avionics world" gathers aircraft systems in a secured environment.
The "open world" is like an extension of the aircraft systems to the outside
for airline operations and passengers needs.
The "open world" is mainly composed of an onboard hardware platform
called Network Server System (NSS) and of a set of applications,
electronic documentation called Onboard Information System (OIS).
The purpose of the NSS is to offer a cost effective and versatile network
for hosting the OIS. The NSS and the OIS will improve the airline
operations related to flight, maintenance and cabin operations, and, to
implement additional services for passengers.
The NSS, based on high-speed communication protocol, mainly supplies:
-A servers and routers platform,
-Connections to Human Machine Interfaces (HMIs) for various end users,
which are the flight crew, the maintenance staff, the cabin crew and the
passengers,
-Secured data communication with the aircraft systems in the avionics
world through firewalls,
-An external data communication capability with Airline Operational
Control (AOC) centers and with service providers (e.g.: electronic mail).
The OIS mainly improves the airlines operations on ground and in flight
by:
-Supplying electronic forms (e.g.: logbook) and documentations, replacing
the use of paper media,
-Offering a set of customized applications and documentation developed
either by the aircraft manufacturer, the airlines or a third party.
These enhancements give:
-The flight crew an easy, intuitive and quick access to the data they may
require to make a decision, etc.,
-The maintenance staff, tools to get easy maintenance operations
improving the autonomy of the aircraft and leading to the reduction of
the failure isolation time,
-The cabin crew an easy access to their electronic documentation and
electronic form used for cabin operations,
-The passengers a worldwide electronic mail and Internet services.

NSS Architecture
The NSS has a network infrastructure based mainly on onboard servers,
routers and laptops. The NSS is divided into 3 sub-networks associated
to the 3 NSS domains.
AVIONICS DOMAIN
The AVIONICS DOMAIN is composed of:
-2 redundant servers named Aircraft Network Server Unit-OPerationS
(ANSU-OPS). These servers supply computing and memory resources
to the hosted OIS applications, documentation and database.
-2 redundant routers named Aircraft Router Unit-OPerationS
(ARU-OPS). These routers manage data exchanged between the
AVIONICS WORLD, the Network Server System (NSS) and its
Human Machine Interfaces (HMIs).
-1 Secure Interface Router Unit (SIRU) is dedicated to
decontaminating Aircraft Communication Addressing and Reporting
System (ACARS) messages coming from ground and to safely connect
Portable Multipurpose Access Terminals (PMATs) and Flight
Attendant Panels (FAPs) giving access to some NSS AVIONICS
DOMAIN hosted applications,
-2 Secured Communication Interfaces (SCIs), which supply safe and
duplex communication between the OIS applications and the
AVIONICS WORLD. Both SCIs also do the same between the OIS
applications and the Airline Operational Control (AOC) centers
through ACARS network.
The Centralized Data Acquisition Module (CDAM) supplies aircraft
parameters and avionics data from the AVIONICS WORLD to the
NSS for recording and for OIS applications needs.
-1 Open World Diode (OWD), which allows an unidirectional data
flow coming from the AVIONICS DOMAIN and going to other NSS
domains and some cabin systems.
Note that the OWD is an electrical device that gives a single way of
communication from its left to its right side. It prevents malicious
data coming from its right going to the avionics domain and to the
avionics world.
The AVIONICS DOMAIN is accessible from the cockpit, from the
cabin and from additional areas on the A/C, through various HMIs,
which are:
-The CAPT and the F/O Onboard Information Terminals (OITs) with
their keyboard and Additional Control Device (ACD) mainly dedicated
to the flight crew,
-The Onboard Maintenance Terminal (OMT), including a media drive
(CD reader/writer and DVD reader), dedicated to the maintenance
staff,
-The PMATs dedicated to maintenance staff (only one PMAT is basic
and it is a ground support equipment),
-The main and upper deck Flight Attendant Panels (FAPs) dedicated
to the cabin crew,
-And the Printer-1, located on the pedestal, dedicated to flight crew
and maintenance staff.
