Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To define an association control service element(ACSE) as the object of modeling due to a guideline for the definition of managed object(GDMO) as well in an open system based on OSI managing system management information. SOLUTION: In the open system based on an OSI managing system management standard, the ACSE (ISO/IEC 8649 and 8650) is defined as a managed object (M) by the GDMO (ISO/IEC 10165-4) so that a system for mounting the ACSE can be provided. In the transmission/reception of network management information through a Q3 interface specified by a telecommunication management network(TMN) (ITU-T, M.3010) of ITU-T, the ACSE can be handled homogeneously with the MO for providing a system management function(SMF) (ISO/IEC 10164 series).

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an open system based on the OSI system management standard.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In an open system based on a conventional OSI management system standard, a MIB (Managed Inform

In transmission and reception of network management information via the Q3 interface defined by the TU-T TMN, the MO uses an SMF (System Management Function, ISO / IEC 10164).
Series).

[0003] As a conventional example related to the present invention, a "network management mounting system" described in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. Hei 5-167636 is used in a network management mounting system when adding a management target or changing the mounting. This eliminates the need for major changes to the entire system.

Further, “OSI network management system and method” described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 7-235966 is
In an OSI network, a problem of an increase in processing load on a managed device and a problem of an increase in a communication fee for reporting an event between the network management device and the managed device are solved.

Further, an "agent system" described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 7-239816 relates to an agent system of an OSI management system, which reduces a shared memory area required in the system and processes management operations. It can improve efficiency.

[0006]

Conventionally, in an open system based on the OSI management system management standard, AC
SE (Association Control Service Element, ISO / IEC
8649, 8650) is GDMO (Guidelines for the definit)
ion of managed objects, which is outside the scope of modeling based on ISO / IEC 10165-4), and ACSE implementation information must be created / stored separately as design information. It must be stored on an open system or referenced from other open systems. I couldn't do that.

An object of the present invention is to provide an open system based on OSI management system management information, in which ACSE is also subjected to modeling by GDMO.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.

An open system A (reference numeral 1) having an OSI network management function stores an OSI communication device 11 for connecting to an open system B (reference numeral 2) and MO information to be managed by the network. MIB for

The OSI communication device 11 is a communication protocol stack based on the OSI reference model (ITU-T, Q.810, Q.810).
811), and has a function of transmitting and receiving network management information exchanged between the open system A (reference numeral 1) and the open system B (reference numeral 2) via the Q3 interface.

The mounting information of ACSE is ACSE MO1
3 is stored in the MIB 12. Conventionally, ACSE is G
Although it was not subject to modeling by DMO, ACSE
MO13 is treated the same as MO group represented by SMF,
Modeling is performed as in the ACSE implementation model information shown in FIG.

Referring to FIG. 2, an ACSE model according to this embodiment will be described.

As attributes, the OSI communication device 11 of FIG.
Is an AA for connecting to the open system B (reference numeral 2).
RQ-APDU and AARE-APDU parameters (Application Context Name, AP-title, AE-qualifier
Etc.) and the supported ACSE service is Supported A
For the CSE Services attribute, the compliant recommendation is Supported S
Has as a tandards attribute. The behavior is ACSE
When the APDU requesting the service is received, in the case of the confirmation type service, if the received request is correct, an acceptance response is transmitted. It is assumed that the action has a status adjustment in the system, performs a process for matching information in the system including the MIB, and issues a “status adjustment completion notification” defined as a notification at the time of completion.

[0016]

As described above, according to the present invention, conventionally, it cannot be held in its own system and other open
ACSE implementation information, which could not be referenced from the system and had to be separately stored as design information, can now be referenced. The reason is that the ACSE function is modeled based on GDMO and stored as an MO in MIB,
That is, it can be handled in the same way as the MO representing the MF.
