One objective is to ensure that these features are compatible with terrestrial SDH Transport Network management systems. This Recommendatio

The details of the functional architecture of TMN can be found in Annex B. 2.3.2 TMN management services Telecommunications management is the integration of the management of several telecommunication managed areas of a service provider to maximize the overal
14、l quality of service provided to the customers by maximizing the productivity of the resources of the service provider. Thus the business objective of telecommunications management is to continually improve the quality of service delivered to the customer by improving the productivity of the operati
15、ons of the service provider. TMN management services are defined as a matrix of service components as illustrated in Table 3 which is taken from IT-T Recommendation M.3200 1992 - TMN Management Services Overview. it exhibits the required behaviour to defined stimuli; it emits the required notificati

17、74 only deals with the lowest network element management layer. The revised ITU-T Recommendation M.3200 “TMN Management Services” dated April 1995 expanded the five areas of management (performance, fault, configuration, accounting and security management) to include several other areas as detailed
18、below. The latest text will be adopted for this Recommendation. STDmITU-R RECMN S-1250-ENGL 1797 YA55212 0530517 523 10 Rec. IT-R S.1250 2.3.2.1 List of management services The following list of management services have been identified; - Customer administration - Network provisioning management - W
19、ork force management - - - Tariffs, charging and accounting administration Quality of service and network performance administration Traffic measurement and analysis administration - Traffic management - - Maintenance administration Routing and digit analysis administration - Security administration
20、 - Logistics management. NOTE 1 - The above list is not exhaustive and is meant only as a guide. NOTE 2 - Some management services may be too large to handle as a single service. NOTE 3 - Some definitions which are of interest to this Recommendation are reproduced below. 2.3.2.2 Management services
21、definitions 2.3.2.2.1 QoS degradation can be the result of many different causes such as design errors, under-dimensioning of resources and failures of components. When there is no testing coverage for some of these root causes then the only way to uncover them is by QoS monitoring or via the compla
22、ints of dissatisfied customers. Experience has shown that it can take several years to solve some deep rooted problems even with the best expertise available. Some common QoS degradations are hard-to-reach directions and poor transmission quality. ITU-T Recommenda- tions E.420-E.428 and E.800-E.880
23、explore this aspect of management. Techniques to improve the quality of the design process, called design reliability management, have recently been introduced (see similar techniques described in Recommendation M.20). Quality of service (QoS) and network performance management Traffic measurement a
24、nd analysis administration, see ITU-T Recommendations ES00 through E.720 and their supplements. Traffic management, see IT-T Recommendations E.410 through E.4 14. 2.3.2.3 Development from TMN management services TMN Management Services (MSs) are the starting point for the development of the TMN inte
25、rface specifications via the performance of Tasks 1 and 2 of the interface-definition methodology, using GDMS, as described in ITU-T Recommendation M.3020 “TMN Interface Specification Methodology”. 2.3.2.4 Management information processing Previous sections have defined the management environment in
26、 global terms, e.g. the employment of an object-oriented management information database. It is now necessw to define the interactions between these various management entities. Management of telecommunications systems is an information processing activity which is geographically distributed over a
27、very wide range of distances and a large number of terminals. STDaITU-R RECMN S-1250-ENGL 1797 m 4855212 0530520 245 Rec. ITU-R S.1250 11 2.3.3 Manager and agent roles The Management Application Function (MAF) can adopt one of two roles which are referred to as manager or agent. For any given activi
28、ty it is usually in one or other of these roles but there may be cases where it has to function in both roles simultaneously. 2.3.3.1 The manager role The part of the distributed application that issues directives, receives responses to its directives and also receives unsolicited notifications. 2.3
29、.3.2 The agent role The part of the application process that provides a front-end process to a collection of managed objects and generates the responses to directives from the manager and also issues unsolicited notifications about events detected by the resources under its control which are represe
30、nted as managed objects for the purpose of supporting the management function. In the general case managers and agents may be involved in “many-to-many” type relationships which is rather difficult to control as it raises difficulties about synchronization and concurrent and possibly conflicting dir
31、ectives. This issue is for further study. 2.4 TMN management communication services See Fig. 3 for a block diagram of TMN management communications.

32、 I Agent os O Local environment O MIB objects O0 Y r I 2.5 Separation from underlying communications The separation of the management communication from any underlying communication protocol is considered to be beneficial for several reasons: - - - - - Therefore this Recommendation does not call for
33、 any underlying protocol requirements. it will make integration of these new management concepts into existing management systems much easier; it will facilitate the interoperation of the two types of management systems; it will allow greater flexibility in solving any communication access problem c
34、aused by any fault condition; it avoids translation between the two management systems at the private/public network boundary; it avoids some duplication of objects and object classes. 12 Rec.

Conditional features are shown in brackets on
