Résumé

A guide to managing today's large enterprise networks. Author stresses the development of tools to help the network manager. Focuses on the use of SNMP and MIBs.

In today's business world, it is crucial to be able to manage large, complex networks in an efficient and cost-effective manner. Network Management, MIBs and MPLS: Principles, Design and Implementation makes such management possible. Widely-experienced engineer and network management specialist Stephen Morris discusses how, the skillful use of MIBs (management information bases) and network management system (NMS) technology, can be used to help solve some of the management problems associated with running large footprint enterprise and service provider networks. These problems include issues of wide technology mix (ATM, FR, Ethernet, IP, MPLS etc.), the increasing need for real time IP traffic, the need for strong security, scalability (the latter is possibly the biggest single problem facing network managers).

For networking professionals, network managers, MIB authors and anyone associated with programming for large-scale networks, Network Management, MIBs and MPLS: Principles, Design and Implementation is a vital handbook.

With examples in both Java and C++, this book covers SNMPv3, network management software components, IP routing, MPLS and much more. Coverage includes:

In-depth analysis of SNMP, the de facto network management standard
Scalability solutions using special MIB features, NMS and MPLS
HP's Openview Network Node Manager
Network management server components
NMS software components
Case studies in MPLS network management using the IETF MPLS MIBs
The theory and practice of network management
Numerous reference appendices featuring over 20 pages of C++ and Java source code designed to clearly illustrate the rudimentary structure of an NMS
