Abstract

This paper discusses the experiences of the Provisioning And Monitoring (PAM) laboratory at NYNEX Science and Technology in incorporating the Common Management Information Protocol (CMIP) and the Telecommunications Management Network (TMN) concepts into a network management system developed to manage a network of broadband ATM switches supporting a CMIP interface, as well as a legacy switching platform supporting both a proprietary interface and the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) interface. The primary focus of the discussion will be on the implementation issues pertaining to the CMIP interface and the TMN object model; in particular their complexities and the approaches used to manage that complexities while retaining their functionalities.
