Abstract

Friendly user interface has been improved its efficiency for network management applications and reduction of the occurrence for emergency. Based on the advanced man-machine interface paradigm, virtual reality (VR), and the attractive and dynamic nature of WWW and Java language to build applications, we explore three approaches to manage broadband networks. These approaches which play the role of manager in SNMP manager-agent architecture include: 1) web-based manager; 2) Java-based manager; and 3) VR-based manager. From the results we believe that the WWW and VR technologies are the right niche for the network management applications
