Research On Key Technologies Of Web-based Distributed Network Management

Web-based distributed network management is an important development direction for current network management. Meanwhile, the extension from traditional network device management to host and application management is also a hotspot.On the basis of discussing both the distributed technology and the Web-based management technology, a Web-based distributed hierarchical and integrated network management system is designed. And further analysis and research have been made on the core technologies, such as communication between distributed platforms, remote task scheduling and distributed data synchronization. Firstly, a simple protocol named RNP is designed and realized to solve the communication problem. Secondly, on the base of classifying the network management tasks as gathering and configuring ones according to their different characters, a united scheduling scheme of remote tasks has been implemented. Thirdly, the problem of synchronizing data among distributed databases is solved using materialized views, and the synchronization of configuration management information is achieved with a discrepancy reporting method. The experimental results show that the scheduling scheme, the remote task scheduling mechanism, and the data synchronization method do meet the system requirements very well.
