Contents • 1. Introduction • 2. Open Approaches for Management • 3. Issues in Open Management • 4. Conclusion
1. Introduction • Open Management • Automated Network and Systems Management in a Non-Proprietary, Widely Accepted Standard Fashion. • OSI Management (ISO/ITU-T). • Internet Management. • Not Limited to CMIP and SNMP.
Why Open Management • Interoperability • Ability of individual components within an open management environment to exchange information (i.e., interworking) • Portability • Ability to easily place management functions in various platforms. • Integration • Integration of lower-level, individual (e.g. element management) systems to achieve higher-level, integrated management (e.g., service management).

2. Open Approaches for Management • Manager-Agent Model • ISO/ITU-T OSI Management (CMIP) • IETF Internet Management (SNMP) • X/Open XMP/XOM API • Object-Oriented Management Model • OMG's CORBA • Specific Management Domain • ITU-T TMN OSF's DME • DMTF's DMI

2.3 X/Open XMP/XOM • X/Open = Portability • XMP • Provide CMIS and SNMP Service API. • Recognizes Both GDMO and SNMP MOs. • XOM • Maps ASN.1 data to a uniform data structure "om_object". • Provide API for the manipulation of om_objects. • Base for XMP Interface.

2.6 OSF DME Distributed Management Environment • Network Management Option • Use IRB to Support XMP (CMIP and SNMP). • Object Management Framework • Extend CORBA to provide MRB. (I4DL) • Use DCE's RPC for Broker Communications. • Distributed Services • Event Service, Print Service, Software Distributed Service, License Management Service, Subsystem Management Service, PC Service.

3. Issues in Open Management • Standardization is always in progress. • Options in standards will be an interoperability barrier. • Interoperability Testing. • Interworking among standards. • XMP/XOM API Complexity. • Coexistence with Legacy systems. • ...
Potential Solutions • International Standard Profiles (ISPs). • Agreements and Specifications of NM Forum, OMG, X/Open, OSF, ... • IIMC (ISO/ITU-T and Internet Management Coexistence) • A New CMIS API. • Open Management Edge (OME). • Follow OMNIPoint
4. Conclusion • Open management is a big trend. • From element management to service management. • OSI management systems emerge. • TMN: a focal point • Follow, Join, or Lead?
