LARA users can exchange AUP/UUP information with NM along different mechanisms:
- In manual mode by saving local AUP/UUP files and importing them into CIAM, or
- In automatic mode by silently exchanging NM B2B messages in order to synchronise local LARA and centralised NM environments.
For the latter, some configuration is required at the LARA Server level (see the LARA Technical Manual), and access has to be granted by NM after completion of mandatory administrative steps.
To access NM B2B services, you need to first apply for credentials (certificate, user account, password). This procedure is described here, and you have to apply via the submission of an online request. You have to select in the frame “IV. SERVICE TYPE”, the NM B2B option, and select “Other Specific Package” which can be described as “LARA access to AirspaceStructures and AirspaceAvailability services”.
If you plan to access NM B2B via the NewPENS network (instead of the public internet), please make a clear reference to this such as “LARA access to AirspaceStructures and AirspaceAvailability services via NewPENS“, as the corresponding certificates are diffferent. Additionally, a “B2B over NewPENS Infrastructure Design” document, describing all technical parameters (such as the IPs used), should be elaborated in coordination with NM Customer support.
This procedure will allow you to receive a PREOPS certificate “.p12” file, that you will have to activate by phone in order to receive the corresponding password.
Finally, some tests have to be performed within this PREOPS environment and, after successful completion, you will receive your final OPS certificate.
