Abstract :
The existence of national and vendor-specific intelligent network (IN) platforms within Europe and the emerging calls for international IN service offerings in the light of a common European telecommunications market present challenging management requirements for IN-structured telecommunication environments in the coming age. The first stage of IN development (Capability Set I) has been standardized by CCITT in 1992, but the management aspects of INs have not been addressed adequately. The author illustrates how current telecommunication management network (TMN) standards can be used for the management of Capability Set I conforment INs. In addition, some information concerning the long-term management capabilities of INs in the light of TMN management service evolution is given
