Information quality

The Nortel Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 customer documentation
uses three designations to indicate the quality verification level for the
information. Each designation indicates the quality testing level that the
documentation passed.

The quality designation also indicates how the documentation is released.
The three quality designations are as follows:

• Draft: Draft quality of the document is verified by development. Draft

information is consistent with the design intent of the service or feature.
Sometimes, Draft documentation is released to customers for early
trials and demos.

• Preliminary: Preliminary quality of the document is verified by the

product support and product verification organizations. Procedural
information passes testing on hardware and software. Preliminary
information is released to customers for trials and demos.

31

• Standard: Standard quality of the document is verified by product line

management. All information is consistent with market positioning and
support. Standard information is generally available and considered as
the official documentation for the release.

Modular, task-based information

Modular, task-based information (MTBI) is a quick reference for using the
Nortel Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 task-based documentation. MTBI
describes the structure of task-based information and how it can be used
most effectively.

Task-based documentation

Task-based documentation is a new way of packaging customer
information in a structured, modular, task-centric format.

37

Task-based documentation focuses on what the user must do and the
sequence in which to perform tasks.

The goal is to make Nortel documentation easy to find, easy to use, timely,
and accurate.

To understand the relationship between work flows, task flows, and
procedures, see Figure 2 "Work flows, task flows, and procedures in

task-based documentation" (page 38).

Work flows, task flows, and procedures in task-based documentation

How is task-based documentation used?

In task-based documentation, procedural information is included in the
document. Supporting conceptual and reference information is provided,
and the user is guided on how to use conceptual and reference material by
identified prerequisites or direct links and references.

The user navigates the information by following the flows that are provided
for tasks and procedures.

Task flow overview

Task flows are flowcharts that illustrate which procedures and decisions
are involved to complete an activity.

19 May 2008

The task flows guide you through activities to use the Nortel Ethernet
Routing Switch 8600, whether it is configuration, upgrading, installation,
maintenance, or troubleshooting.

Each flow provides the prerequisites and links to the tasks or procedures.
To perform or refer to a procedure, always follow the task flow. Following

the task flows ensures that you meet all the requirements for successful
completion of the task.

Work flows, task flows, and procedures

Work flows, task flows, and procedures have similar elements to maintain
consistency and usability. Each section has a specific function.

To understand the relationship between work flows, task flows, and
procedures, see Figure 2 "Work flows, task flows, and procedures in

task-based documentation" (page 38).

Purpose statements

Purpose statements explain why or when you would perform a work flow,
task, or procedure and its impact.

Prerequisites

Prerequisites lists everything you must do or understand before you start
the workflow, task, or procedure, such as tasks that should already be
completed, risks, confirmation of system status, required knowledge, time
estimates or limitations, and links to supporting information.

The prerequisite section is omitted if no required prerequisites exist.

Work flows or task flows

This section is the flow chart diagram that represents the task flow with
navigational links to the tasks or procedures in the flow.

Procedure steps

Procedures provide numerical steps that help you perform the procedure.
Each step is a single action.

40 Modular, task-based information

Example procedures

Some procedures use examples to show how to correctly perform the
procedure with realistic settings.

Variable definitions

Variable definitions provide the possible values, ranges, or definitions of
variables used in the procedure steps.

If variables are not used in the procedure, then the variables definition
section is omitted.

Job aid

Job aids provide information help to successfully perform the procedure.
The job aid is only used when required.

Task-based documentation terms

Task-based documentation uses the following terms.

Term Description

Work flow A high-level or top-level group of

tasks.

Task or task flow A logical group of procedures that is

represented as a single action in a
flowchart diagram. Complex tasks
can be divided into simpler tasks or
subtasks.

Procedure A logical group of steps that can be

described as a single action in a task.

Step A single action that is performed in a

procedure.

Variable A placeholder in procedure steps that

can represent a value or definition.

Restructuring Nortel technical documents into a task-based format is an
ongoing initiative. The documentation for some Nortel products is already
converted to the new format.
