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 Telecommunications management
Network (TMN) concepts in to 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.
Keywords: Network management; CMIP; TMN.
