TL;DR: A survey of the three versions of SNMP is provided, including a discussion of the way in which management information is represented and the protocol functionality.
Abstract: The Simple Network Management Protocol is the most widely used protocol for the management of IP-based networks and internets. The original version, now known as SNMPv1, is widely deployed. SNMPv2 adds functionality to the original version but does not address its security limitations; this relatively recent standard has not achieved much acceptance. An effort is currently underway to develop SNMPv3, which will retain the functional enhancements of SNMPv2 and add powerful privacy and authentication features. This article provides a survey of the three versions of SNMP, including a discussion of the way in which management information is represented and the protocol functionality.

TL;DR: In this paper, a technique for dynamically translating network management primitives into operations on management information stored within a relational database hosting a management information base is presented, where a CMIP network management operation and argument is retrieved from a network management processing machine and processed by a full or partial OSI stack.
Abstract: A technique for dynamically translating network management primitives into operations on management information stored within a relational database hosting a management information base. A CMIP network management operation and argument is retrieved from a network management processing machine and processed by a full or partial OSI stack. The CMIP operation is examined to ascertain a type of network management operation. If the operation is of a type which interacts with the database, a database query is generated in accordance with the operation type, to perform the network management operation on the relational database.

01 Nov 2009TL;DR: Through network virtualization, service brokers can compose usage cases for the created virtual networks, so that end users are able to reconfigure the virtual networks without realtime interventions of administrators.
Abstract: We present a framework of managing optical networks using network virtualization. We use Web Services to achieve network management functions. Through network virtualization, service brokers can compose usage cases for the created virtual networks, so that end users are able to reconfigure the virtual networks without realtime interventions of administrators.

26 Feb 2010TL;DR: This paper introduces a novel approach through using Auto-Regressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) technique to detect potential attacks that may occur in the network and with sufficient development; an automated defensive solution can be achieved.
Abstract: An early warning system on potential attacks from networks will enable network administrators or even automated network management software to take preventive measures. This is needed as we move towards maximizing the utilization of the network with new paradigms such as Web Services and Software As A Service. This paper introduces a novel approach through using Auto-Regressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) technique to detect potential attacks that may occur in the network. The solution is able to provide feedback through its predictive capabilities and hence provide an early warning system. With the affirmative results, this technique can serve beyond the detection of Denial of Service (DoS) and with sufficient development; an automated defensive solution can be achieved.

22 Dec 1995TL;DR: In this paper, a computer-implemented method of managing a computer network including a plurality of devices is provided, wherein a pluralityof network management tasks are performable upon the devices.
Abstract: A computer-implemented method of managing a computer network including a plurality of devices is provided, wherein a plurality of network management tasks are performable upon the devices. Data is gathered about a present configuration of the network, including the types of devices in the network, the quantity of each type of device present in the network, the relationships between the devices, and the tasks performable upon each of the devices. The data is then stored in a database representing a network map. A display is generated corresponding to the network map using the data in the database. The display shows an association of the devices with the tasks performable on the devices using bitmap representations of the devices and tasks. The display may include hierarchical, schematic, or geographical representations of the devices on the network. The devices are organized into a plurality of groups. In response to a user input selecting a device or group, the tasks performable by that device or group are identified on the display. A user may initiate any one of the displayed tasks by applying a user input selecting that task.
