Abstract
The authors investigate the software tools that are necessary to enable an Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) network, based on International Standards Organization (ISO) protocols, to br monitored and managed. To achieve this goal, the network manager system has been developed to allow the communication subsystems associated with all of the nodes connected to an OSI network to be managed in a dynamic way. An overview of network management is followed by a description of the experimental system used to obtain the results reported. The results of using the network management system to monitor, analyze, and manage the interactions between a network agent and the OSI resources that are used by the agent are discussed. The results of the analysis are presented in a suitable format, with accompanying comments to aid the network manager in verifying the results obtained. The system developed does not attempt to implement all the management functions but rather shows how the developed framework can be used to provide these functions.
