Abstract

Network management architectures do not provide a scaleable end-to-end solution for managing high speed distributed networks. A new management architecture, “Web integrated Network for Distributed Management Including Logic” (WINDMIL), is proposed to address the challenges of managing complex heterogeneous networks. The three primary components of the system are the Network Management Server (NMS), the Network Element Web Server (NEWS), and the Operator´s Logic and Processing Platform (OLAPP). In this paper the performance of the WINDMIL architecture in a LAN environment is analyzed using three types of data storage models: centralized, partially distributed and fully distributed
