Abstract
One of the challenges associated with open telecommunications network management is the integration of legacy systems. SNMP is as open management paradigm of growing importance in telecommunications. This raises the question whether it could also form an appropriate basis for an integrated management of TL-1 based devices. This paper takes a closer look at this possibility. TL-1 and SNMP are compared. Technical issues involved in managing TL-1 based systems using SNMP are investigated. Because of the differences in power and intended operating paradigms, it is argued that the suitability of an according management integration depends very much on the application.
