Abstract

Current management architectures address portions of the problem of managing high speed distributed networks; however, they do not provide a scalable end-to-end solution that can be applied to both large LAN and WAN high speed distributed networks. A new management architecture, "Web Integrated Network for Distributed Management Including Logic" (WINDMIL), is proposed to address the challenges of managing complex heterogeneous networks. The three primary components of the system are the Network Management Server (NMS), the Network Element Web Server (NEWS), and the Operator's Logic and Processing Platform (OLAPP). The NMS stores the management functions used by both the NEWS and the user. The NEWS is a Web server which collects and processes network element data in order to support management functions. The OLAPP executes the management functions and interfaces with the user.
