However, in the conventional network management system, the communication control device only performs information collection and protocol conversion. For this reason, when a large amount of operational information is intensively sent from a plurality of network constituent devices in a short period of time, the processing load on the network management center device becomes large and the performance of the network management center device decreases. Such a situation in which a large amount of operational information is intensively sent in a short period of time occurs when maintenance of network constituent devices is performed. The information on the network component devices under maintenance is not actual operational information, so if the network component devices are being maintained, the information on the devices subject to maintenance will be discarded and not used by the network management center device. do it like this. That is, due to the process of selectively discarding unnecessary information, there is a problem in that the load on the network management center device increases and the processing efficiency decreases. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a network management method that reduces the load on a network management center device and improves processing efficiency.
