  1. Network Management Overview Yen-Cheng Chen

  2. Network Management (NM) • Definition • OAM&P of Network and Services • OAM&P: Operations, Administration, maintenance, and Provisioning) • Goal • To ensure that the users of a network receive the IT services with the quality of service (QoS) that they expect.

  3. Five Functional Areas • 障礙管理 (Fault Management) • 組態管理 (Configuration Management) • 安全管理 (Security Management) • 效能管理 (Performance Management) • 計量管理 (Accounting Management)

  4. Fault Management • Fault Management (FM) • Detection of a problem, fault isolation and correction to normal operation. • FM involves the following steps: • Discover the problem. • Isolate the problem • Fix the problem (if possible)

  5. FM Functions • Maintain and examine error logs • Accept and act upon error detection notifications • Trace and identify faults • Carry out sequences of diagnostic tests • Correct faults

  7. Event Logs

  8. Configuration Management • Configuration Management (CM) • The process of finding and setting up (configuring) network devices. • CM identifies, exercises control over, collects data from, and provides data to networked systems.

  9. CM Functions • Set the parameters that control the routine operation of the networked system. • Associate names with managed objects and sets of managed objects. • Initialize and close down managed objects. • Collect information on demand about the current condition of the networked system. • Obtain announcements of significant changes in the condition of the networked system. • Change the configuration of the networked system.

  10. CM Example: Auto Discovery

  11. CM Example: CHTNet

  12. Security Management • Security Management (SM) • The process of controlling access to information on the networked system. • SM Functions • The creation, deletion, and control of security services and mechanisms. • The distribution of security-relevant information. • The reporting of security-relevant events.

  13. Performance Management • Performance Management (PM) • Measuring the performance of network hardware, software, and media. • Performance Measurements: • Overall throughput • Percentage utilization • Error rate • Response time

  14. PM Functions • Gather statistical information. • Maintain and examine logs of system state histories. • Determine system performance under natural and artificial conditions. • Alter system modes of operation for the purpose of conducting PM activities.

  15. Traffic Monitoring - MRTG

  16. Accounting Management • Accounting Management (AM) • Tracking each individual and group user's utilization of network resources to better ensure that users have sufficient resources. • AM enables charges to be established for the use of network resources, and the costs to be identified for the use of those network resources.

  17. AM Functions • Inform users of costs incurred or resources consumed. • Enable accounting limits to be set and tariff schedules to be associated with the use of resources. • Enable costs to be combined where multiple resources are invoked to achieve a given communication objective.

  19. 網路管理基本方式 (續) • Polling (輪詢) • 網管系統主動至被管設備要求網管相關資訊 。 • 一般採用週期性輪詢,週期長短視需要而定,一般設為5~15分鐘。 • Notification (通報) • 網路設備自行發現問題時,主動向網管系統發出事件報告(Event Report)。

  21. NM Components • 管理者 (Manager) • 代理者 (Agent) • 網路管理通信協定 (Network Management Protocol) • 網路管理資訊 (Network Management Information)

  22. Manager vs. Agent • 管理者 (Manager) • 執行各項用來監督(Monitor)及控制(Control)網路設備的網管應用程式 • 代理者 (Agent) • 位於網路設備端,負責接受從管理者端送來之要求,執行所付予之工作,並將結果回報給管理者。

  23. Network Management Protocols • 網路管理協定專為管理者與代理者所設計之通信協定。 • 網路管理協定提供管理者與代理者間交換網管資訊標準方式。 • 目前主要兩種網管通信協定 • Internet網管通信協定: • SNMP (Simple Network Management) • OSI網管通信協定: • CMIS/P (Common Management Information Service / Protocol)

  24. Management Information Model • 被管物件(Managed Object, MO) • 將待管之網路資源,抽象化為物件,稱被管物件,簡寫MO。 • 被管物件所代表之網路資源可大可小,大可至代表整個網路設備如ATM交換器,小可至代表某一網路元件之參數,如介面卡之狀態。 • 管理資訊庫 (Management Information Base) • 被管物件之集合,簡寫MIB。
