  1. Overview of Network Management

  2. Outline • Describe responsibilities of a network manager • Define network management vocabulary • Discuss network management principles • Provide an example of network management implementation • Identify new network management approaches • The evolution of network management

  3. Common Network Problems • Loss of connectivity (Link, Node, Interface) • Duplicate IP address (Procedural) • Intermittent (間歇的) problems • Network configuration issues • Performance problems

  4. Network Management (NM) • Goal • To ensure that network users receive IT services with the quality of service (QoS) that they expect • Maintenance • Network performance • Failures (hardware and software) • Network capacity • Security • Certifications • CAN (Novell’s Certified Netware Administrator) • MCP (Microsoft’s Certified Professional) • CNE (Novell’s Certified Netware Engineer) • MCSE (Microsoft Certified System Engineer)

  5. Top-down View of NM functions

  6. Network-Based Management • SNMP: Simple Network Management Protocol (RFC1157) • MIBs: Management Information Base • NMS: Network management system • RMON1: Remote Monitor (RMON1) • RFCs: Request for Comments • IETF: Internet Engineering Task Force

  7. NMS Management Station Management Agent Network Management Vocabulary • Network Management System (NMS) • Consisting of applications • Management Station • Managing device - management software (NMS) • Management Agent • Managed device – computer, hub, router, or switch

  8. Mgmt (Management) process Service management application programs Provide an interface to the network management protocol, e.g, SNMP Agent process An integrator of processes that access information requested by a network management application An interface to the network management protocol Collect the values of a specified set of variables when a request is made by the Management Station The virtual store of such values is called the Management Information Base (MIB), actually maintained by the managed device Mgmt App Agent Process Agent Protocol Mgmt Process Mgmt Protocol Presentation Presentation Session Session Transport Transport Network Network Data Link Data Link Physical Physical Management Station Management Agent Figure 2-2: Protocol Stacks on the Management Station and the Management Agent Network Management Vocabulary (cont.)

  9. A Network Management Example • The management application calls for the service of the management process • The management process calls the program that implements the network management protocol, e.g., SNMP • The network management protocol implementation constructs a request packet, which is sent to the management agent • The implementation of the network management protocol on the management agent causes the request packet to be passed to the agent process • The agent process accesses the value of the requested variable and passes it to the implementation of the network management protocol • The network management protocol constructs the response packet, which is sent to the management station • The implementation of the network management protocol at the management station receives the response packet and passes it to the management process • The management process either passes the value to the application program, or stores it in memory for later retrieval

  10. Network Management Vocabulary (cont.) • Trap • The management agent send unsolicited messages to the management station • E.g., a device goes from powered-up to the powered-down state • Probe (remote monitors, RMON) • Monitor traffic on the network segment, not a particular device • The management agent thus is remote from the devices it is monitoring
