Research And Application Of The Data Network Management Software Dealing With The IP Metropolitan Area Network

It is commonly held that currently, the IT industry is witnessing high developmentin China. Therefore, applying the Network Management Software as a management toolwill not only optimize the infrastructure’s performance and availability and enhance theefficiency of both the network equipment and the staffs, but it will also save networkresources due to its power and affordability. These advantages come also with a lesscomplex IT management system...This research will firstly introduce the foundation platform of the networkmanagement system, that is to say the basic protocols of the applications of the networkmanagement system. Like SNMP, Solaris and the protocols using databases of theSybase. Then examinations entre different managements will be studied in this paper:the basic function of the Topology Management, Fault Management, ConfigurationManagement, Performance Management, Database Management and SafetyManagement and all that network management system. Furthermore, studies uponstatistics of the new functional performances will be show up and also the analysis ofthe function and realization of the CORBA north-interface, SNMP north-interface.Moreover, the main disadvantages and improvable methods associated with the currentNetwork Management Software used by China Union will be mentioned. Finally, theseare a few examples typically appearing in the application of the work dealing with theMetropolitan Area Network which is adopted by China Union, and showing their statusand importance in the work of the management of the Metropolitan Area Network.
