Using object-oriented techniques for integrated network management modeling
Jairo Gutiérrez · 2002
This paper explains the main concepts associated with the definition of an integrated network management environment (INME) using object-oriented network models, and it proposes an extension to the OSI (Open Systems Interconnection) Reference Model by using three different models that are specified in an integrated way. The extended model incorporates the "de facto" standards used for Internet network management. A basic knowledge of the Internet and OSI-based network management systems is assumed.
