Definitions

  • Configuration managers 114, 116 read the database via DBS 112 to obtain configuration updates and initialization data. When updates have been made, configuration managers
  • FIG. 4 is a flow chart for the handling of management requests by the management agent system shown in FIGs. 2 and 3.
  • Proprietary network manager 100 sends a management request to communication device 104 to configure a new port 118 (Step 302).
  • the management request is received by 5 communication device 104 and routed to the appropriate management agent, in this case proprietary management agent 108 (Step 304).
  • the management agent 108 validates the port configuration request for syntactic and semantic correctness (Step 306). If the request is not valid (Step 308), the 0 management agent 108 returns an error response to the network manager 100 (Step 310). If the management request is valid, the management agent 108 maps the network manager-organized configuration data for the port into the 3NF normalized form. (Step 312).

Abstract

Un système de communications prévoit la séparation entre la vue externe logique d'un gestionnaire de réseau (10, 12) et la vue interne physique du dispositif de communication (18, 20). Un agent de gestion unique (108, 110) représente un gestionnaire de réseau unique (100, 102). L'agent de gestion (108, 110) est responsable du décodage des demandes émanant de ce gestionnaire de réseau (100, 102).
