Abstract

The reliance on computer communications networks for business and commerce, education, entertainment and many other applications demands these resources are managed effectively. In this context, “management” refers to ensuring security and performance, recovering from faults and accounting for utilisation. Each of these activities requires knowledge of the network configuration, and information about the networked devices. It is on the basis of this knowledge that management decisions to change the configuration and network behaviour are taken. Hence the manager requires as full and accurate a set of information about the network under their control as it is possible to get. Typically, this information resides across the network and is transferred (to the network manager) to assist the network manager’s decision making.
