The Unsupported MetaSwitch object corresponds to an NE that cannot be managed by the EMS (typically because it is running a newer level of software than the EMS Server).
This object appears in the EMS Tree View only when the owning MetaSwitch Connection is active, because the EMS must be connected to the NE in order to obtain information about it.
There are no configurable parameters and no actions available, and no child objects are displayed. However, the object provides some status information about the unsupported NE as a whole. Several of the status parameters relate to the software upgrade process, and appear only if a software upgrade is in progress. Refer to the Ancillary Servers Guide for more information about this process.
