Study of the Hierarchy Management Model Based on Active Network Node
Zhong Guo-xiang · 2008
Active network is a new framework where network nodes not only forward packets,but also perform customi-zed computation on the packet flowing through them.It provides a programmable interface to the user where users dynamically inject services into the intermediate nodes.However,the traditional prototype of network management does not accommodate to the management of active networks,it cannot utilize the distributed copulation capabilities that active networks provides.This paper analysed the structure and mechanism of the active network management system,introduced a pattern of active network management,and studied the structure,management mechanism,design outline and each connection of the management system.The paper also studied the network topology discovery and traffic.
