An implementation of an open network management system

Since the advent of computer communication networks, there have been considerable advances in the field of OSI network management. When there are a number-of subsystems operating and manipulating many complex jobs interconnected by a networks, the need for a network management facility is essential. The network management system is based on the ISO standards for OSI management. It is concerned primarily with the management of the communication subsystems in each node connected to an OSI network. The developed system does not attempt to implement all the management functions, but rather shows how the framework can be used to provide these functions. The ISO network management framework, based on the ISO basic reference model, has been defined to provide the means for the communication subsystems in all the nodes connected to a network to be remotely monitored and controlled. The paper describes the concepts development and achievements of our project in the field of OSI network management, which are applied to the project “optical fiber integrated services ring for Shanghai petrochemical complex”
