Abstract: A system and method for the automatic provisioning of an openline circuit, specifically for use with a network management system, the system comprising a web GUI (Graphical User Interface) and middleware, wherein the middleware may be synchronized with and instructs a prior art network management system is disclosed. The GUI can be accessed by personnel in an IT department, or by dealers over the Internet via their dealer board using “secure sockets” to be able to make the changes to their openline circuits, including the provisioning of a new openline circuit, the various different inputs being processed by the middleware. The middleware manipulates many SQL (Structured Query Language) databases and is adaptable to work with any network management platform and further is able to provide billing information.

Abstract: Multi-ply tissue products are disclosed. The multi-ply tissue products contain tissue webs that have raised areas and depressed areas. The tissue webs may be constructed so as to be relatively non-compressive and may have a resilient three-dimensional structure. During production, in one embodiment, the tissue webs may be produced without being subjected to any substantial compression, such as a calendering process. Although not necessary in all applications, in one embodiment, the tissue webs may be combined such that the depressed areas contact each other to form the multi-ply product. The tissue webs, for instance, may comprise a through-air dried web in which the raised areas and the depressed areas are molded into the web. Tissue products made according to the present invention have enhanced absorption characteristics. For instance, the tissue products can have an interply absorbency of greater than about 3 g/g after 30 seconds.
