S1 is management information having the highest priority and management information to which all managers should be notified in real time, and Sn is management information having the lowest priority and management information which needs to be notified to only a few of the lower managers.

The classification of the manager group classifies managers who receive management information corresponding to each importance level into G1-Gm. G1 is a top-level manager group and refers to a group to be notified of high-level management information, and Gm is a bottom-level manager group, in which all necessary management information is to be notified.

The management information of each level and the method of notifying the manager group are as follows.

Management information of importance level S1 is reported to the manager groups G1, G2, G3, -----, Gm.

The management information of importance level S2, S3 is notified to the manager groups G2, G3, -----, Gm.

In this way, management information whose importance is Si-Sj is notified to the administrator group Gv-Gw.

The management information whose importance is Sn is notified to the administrator group Gm.

The order of the management information satisfies 1 <i, j <n, 1 <v, w <m.

In each manager group, the individual station 20 of the manager to be notified is registered.

As described above, the management information (Sn) of low importance is notified only to the lowest manager group (Gm), and the management information (S1) of high importance is notified to all the management groups (G1-Gm), and the management information of medium (Si) -Sj) notifies the specific manager group (Gv-Gw) so that the management information is transmitted to the manager group to be notified in real time.

As described above, the short message center 24 may arbitrarily designate a manager group to be notified of management information for each level and transmit the management information to a manager group to which the management information is notified in real time.

As described above, the system for real-time automatic notification of network management information according to the present invention classifies network management information by class and informs any administrator group of management information, regardless of the location of administrators who should be informed of management information. Since the management information can be received, the network manager has an advantage of overcoming the shortcomings of the conventional network management structure in which the network management station must be managed for 24 hours, thereby increasing the efficiency of network management and maintenance.
