Fault Management based on peer-to-peer paradigms; A case study report from the CELTIC project Madeira
Markus Leitner, Philipp Leitner, Martin Zach, Sandra Collins, Claire Fahy · 2007
We present an approach to fault management based on an architecture for distributed and collaborative network management as developed in the CELTIC project Madeira. It uses peer-to-peer communication facilities and a logical overlay network facilitating decentralized and iterative alarm processing and correlation. We argue that such an approach might help to overcome key challenges that are posed by NGN scenarios to traditional centralized network management systems. Its feasibility is demonstrated by means of a case study from the area of wireless mesh networks, where an application prototype has been developed.
