Study on Architecture-Oriented Network Management Model

In the past several years, the usage of network is getting more and more popular
and various types of network applications also have vigorous advancement. Because
the benefits which network applications produced obtain a lot of enterprise's attention,
each enterprise is eager to introduce the network to unify each kind of information
system, and expects to achieve the synthesis effect as well. At present, the network
system has been an indispensable infrastructure in the enterprise, but how to make it
effective becomes a tough issue in an enterprise¡¦s business plan.
In 1997, the International Standard Organization proposed the OSI Network
Management Model, is also named FCAPS Model, to apply on the data network.
FCAPS Model is mainly to define the functional scope of the network management
system. Though it is easy to understand, it does not have the deeper explanations how
to achieve these functions. Also, FCAPS fails to tell who should do what in a network
system. As a result of such deficiencies, the enterprise often doesn¡¦t know how to do
to apply FCAPS into the planning of a network management system.
This research develops a network management architecture description language
(NMADL) by using the concept of system architecture to construct an
architecture-oriented network management model (AONMM). AONMM is an
integrated model which consists of the viewpoint of structure and behavior. By
integrating the structure and behavior into one unity, it clearly and completely
describes the network management system. Furthermore, this research analyzes the
problems of FCAPS Model and compares it with AONMM to verify AONMM¡¦s
superiority. AONMM is a valuable referenced model for planning, analyzing and
designing network management systems.
