Z.337NETWORK MANAGEMENT ADMINISTRATION1 GeneralThis Recommendation has been developed in accordance with the methodology defined inRecommendations Z.332 and Z.333.The main part of

5、this Recommendation deals with the model of the Network Management Administration. Aglossary of the terms used is also included.The list of operator jobs and the list of system functions to be controlled are contained in Annex A.For each system function to be controlled by means of MML, one or more

6、MML functions can be derived andeach of them can be described using the metalanguage defined in Recommendation Z.333, in order to detail therelevant information structure.Annex B contains guidelines for the definition of the list of MML functions and the information structurediagrams associated to e

7、ach of them to be used as guidelines.2 IntroductionNetwork management is the function of supervising the network and taking action to control the flow of trafficso as to ensure the maximum utilization of the network in all situations. The objective is to enable as many calls aspossible to be success

8、fully completed. In its current scope, Network Management doesnt address the aspects ofmanaging traffic on portions of the network that are leased or under the control of network customers.According to CCITT Recommendations E.410 through E.414, E.502, Q.542 and Q.544, Network Managementrequires the

9、performance of a certain number of activities to detect abnormal network conditions and to initiate theexecution of corrective actions and/or controls. The general scenario of Network Management activities can bedescribed through the involved information flow as depicted in Figure 1/Z.337. Network R

10、aw Data related to trafficparameters and the status (i.e. level of overload, out of service conditions, etc.) of the Network Elements can beprocessed to provide Network Management Parameters, using the Network Reference Data which are necessary tocalculate Network Management Parameters. The Network

11、Raw Data are produced from Network ManagementElements.Network Management Parameters, describing the current network status and performance, can be related tosome threshold values (representing the boundary between normal and abnormal behaviour) in order to detectabnormal conditions.Abnormal Conditio

12、n Reports, Network Management Parameters and other information (from telephoneoperators, work centres, news media, etc.) are used to identify the origin of the problem and, as a consequence, todecide the proper actions to be taken or the most suitable controls to be activated.Network problem identif

13、ication and consequent corrective actions can be handled manually or automatically byan “expert” system which is capable of performing the functions of abnormal condition detection, problem analysis andproblem solving. All the activities carried out for Network Management can be handled by the opera

14、tor supervision.Furthermore, for cooperation, coordination and planning purposes, Network Management Reports could bedistributed to other operating centres, to higher authorities, etc.Depending on each Administration and network organization, Network Management activities can be partiallyor totally

15、performed at exchange level or concentrated in one or more Network Management Centres.Figure 2/Z.337 contains an example of how the general scenario can be applied to a particular operatingorganization. In this example, the functions shown for the Network Element and Network Management OperationsSys

16、tem are performed by the system under operator control.Considering the Network Management scenario and the operator activities (listed in Annex A to thisRecommendation) three different sub-areas can be recognized: Network Management Data administration; Network Management Controls administration; Ne

17、twork Management Data Distribution administration.2 Fascicle X.7 - Rec. Z.337Only the sub-areas for Network Management Data administration is covered by the present Recommendation.The remaining two sub-areas, namely Network Management Controls administration and Network Management DataDistribution a

18、dministration are left for further study.Fascicle X.7 - Rec. Z.337 3 4 Fascicle X.7 - Rec. Z.3373 Network Management Models3.1 IntroductionAccording to the division of Network Management activities in three sub-areas as stated in 2, three differentmodels, as indicated in the following, have to be de

19、veloped: Network Management Data administration model; Network Management Controls administration model; Network Management Data Distribution administration model.3.2 Network Management Data administration modelNetwork Management Data administration sub-area concerns the operator activities for mana

20、ging the set ofinformation necessary to monitor the network status and performance. This information can be routed toward properdisplay and/or storage devices in the Network Management Centre or passed to remote Administrations under operatorcontrol.Data administration is applied to the following da

21、ta: Network Raw Data; Network Management Parameters; Network Management Indicators; Network Reference Data.3.2.1 Network Raw DataNetwork Raw Data describe, for each network management element, the current operating conditions (e.g.exchange load, number of in-service circuits, etc.) and traffic behav

22、iour (e.g. number of seizures for circuits sub-group).Network Raw Data are administered by the MML functions for Traffic Measurements Administration,therefore they are not considered in the Network Management functional area.3.2.2 Network Management ParametersNetwork Management Parameters describe t

23、he network status and performance in terms of entities (as indicatedin Recommendation E.411) and Network Management Objects.Network Management Objects are the set of Network Elements subject to measurement for NetworkManagement purposes.One or more Network Management Objects can be grouped as origin

24、 and/or destination objects to define trafficflow; the Network Management Objects are hierarchically presented below: network group; network; exchange group; exchange; circuit group; circuit sub-group.Network management monitoring and control of circuit groups and circuit sub-groups can only be perf

25、ormedvia an exchange.In Figure 3/Z.337 is represented, as an example, a Network Management Parameter in terms of the entity“answer/seizure ratio” for traffic handled by a circuit sub-group and forwarded to a set of exchanges characterized bythe same destination code.Fascicle X.7 - Rec. Z.337 53.2.3

26、Network Management IndicatorsNetwork Management Indicators represent the logical results (e.g. yes or no) obtained from the comparison ofNetwork Management Parameters against a predefined set of numerical values (thresholds).Numerical values associated with thresholds can be time-dependent (e.g. mor

27、ning/afternoon hours, holidays,etc.).3.2.4 Network Reference DataNetwork Reference Data can be administered by the MML functions which are appropriate for each type ofreference data, therefore they are not considered in the network management functional area.3.3 Network management control administra
