ISO/IEC Foreword
ISO (International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) are specialized organizations for standardization worldwide. National member bodies (which are members of ISO or IEC) participate in the development of international standards for specific technical areas through technical committees established by the international organizations. ISO and IEC technical committees cooperate in areas of common interest. Other official and non-official international organizations in contact with ISO and IEC may also participate in the development of international standards. For information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IECJTC1. Draft international standards proposed by the joint technical committee are circulated to national member bodies for voting. To publish an international standard, at least 75% of the national member bodies participating in the voting must vote in favor.
ISO/IEC10040 was developed by the ISO/IECJTC1 Joint Technical Committee "Information Technology" in cooperation with CCITT. The equivalent text is CCITT X.701.
Appendix A forms part of this standard.
Appendix B is for information only.

System Management provides mechanisms for monitoring, controlling, and coordinating resources in an OSI environment, and for communicating information associated with those resources. 440
GB/T17142—1997
OSI protocol standard. To describe management operations on resources in an OSI environment, these resources are considered as managed objects with specified characteristics. In any open system, the information required for system management can be provided by local input, or generated from input from other open systems through system management (application layer) communication, or can be the result of low-level protocol exchanges. In particular, system management applies to, but is not limited to: OSI layer 1 (dedicated/leased lines, satellite connections); OSI layer 2 (local area network, wide area network, etc.); OSI layer 3 (CSPDN, PSPDN, ISDN, B-ISDN, subnets of CCITT Recommendation X.300, etc.); - OSI layer 4 (transport layer entities),
OSI layer 5 (session layer entities);
- OSI layer 6 (presentation layer entities);
OSI layer 7 (MHSIMOTIS, FIAM, VT, TP, directory). (For example: the use of CCITT Recommendation M.30TMN is also considered a valid application of system management). NOTE: These standards were, of course, developed primarily to meet the need for managed OSI resources, but they also have broad applicability. Furthermore, it is possible that other areas may be specifically addressed in the standards in the future. Systems management can be applied to a wide range of distributed processing and communication environments. These environments range from local area networks interconnecting small systems to global scale interconnected cooperative and national networks. Small scale environments can be managed by appropriate small scale management systems consisting of a single manager that is able to control and coordinate the open communication environment through many agents. The standards and concepts are also applicable to large scale environments supporting multiple managers.
The entire set of systems management standards can be divided into the following three main groups: a) Group -→ is a set of standards that specify system management functions; b) a set of standards that are related to the specification of managed objects; c) a set of application layer service and protocol standards for information communication related to management functions. The needs met by system management activities can be conveniently divided into five groups, each of which gives one or more standards covering one or more functions. These scopes defined by the management framework (GB/T9387.4) are: - fault management;
configuration management;
accounting management,
- performance management;
security management.
However, it is known that many information items and their related management operations and communication protocols are common to multiple scopes. And in performing management activities, groups of management functions can be combined to complete specific management strategies. For this reason, system management standards constitute a closely related set of standards. 6 System Management Model
6.1 Introduction
This chapter identifies a number of system management concepts and provides a model to illustrate these concepts and their interrelationships. The following clauses describe various aspects of the system management model:--Information aspects;
Functional aspects:
OSI communication aspects;
Organizational aspects.
The management of the communication environment is an information processing application. Since the managed environment is distributed, the individual components of the management activities are themselves distributed. Management applications perform management activities in a distributed manner by establishing connections between system management application entities. 441
GB/T 17142-—1997
As shown in Figure 1, the interactions that occur between system management application entities are abstracted as management operations and notifications issued by one entity to another; they communicate using system management services and protocols. Managed open system

Managed object
Management activities are triggered by manipulating managed objects. For system management, management applications are classified according to MIS users. Each interaction occurs between two MIS users, one of whom plays the manager role and the other plays the agent role. The MIS user in the agent role is part of a distributed application that manages managed objects in its local system environment. Based on the management operations communicated by the manager, the agent performs management operations on the managed objects. The agent can also forward notifications issued by the managed objects to the manager.
The MIS user in the manager role is part of a distributed application that is responsible for one or more management activities by issuing management operations and receiving notifications.
The concept of management is not limited to applications that participate solely in system management; other applications that need access to management information may use the management information services.
The roles of MIS users are not permanently assigned. Some MIS users are restricted to acting only in the agent role, some in the manager role, and other MIS users are allowed to act in the agent role in one interaction and in the manager role in another interaction. NOTE
1 When a management interaction between open systems pertains to more than one managed object, the specification of how the agent distributes management operations among its managed objects is not part of the standard.
2 Managed objects may themselves represent resources external to a managed system. The relationship between a managed system and an external resource may also be a manager/agent relationship. If the communication between these systems follows the OSI management standard, management operations on managed objects in the original managed system may result in further manager/agent exchanges to operate on "remote" managed objects. There is no limit to the number of such layered management operations allowed. It is important to recognize that this International Standard establishes only a conceptual model that describes the structure and content of the information that is actually communicated using standardized management information services. Whenever management information is communicated, it is communicated according to this model. Where and how a system represents and stores the actual data that produces the management information is a local issue and is therefore not part of the standard.
NOTE 3: Figure 2 shows a particular way of viewing the system management model and is given for information only. The figure was of importance during the development of this specification. In particular, it distinguishes between local mappings to standardized communications (following the rules introduced in 6.2) and illustrates that there must be a way to view the actual management information according to the model in the system management application process. Furthermore, this method exists in the local environment and therefore implementation issues are not part of the standard.
Figure 2 does not show a complete model nor does it show all the details. In particular, it does not mean that a subtree of the naming tree must be associated with a specific layer, nor does it mean that the term "system management information model space" is a defined term. 442

Figure 2 Relationship between the information and communication aspects of the system management model This clause introduces the information aspects of the system management model. The definition of the information model is given in GB/T 17175.1. It refines the concept of managed objects defined in GB/T 9387.4. It involves their attributes, the management operations that may be performed on them, and the notifications that they may issue. The collection of managed objects in a system, together with their attributes, constitutes the Management Information Base (MIB) of that system. Managed objects that meet the standard are to be specified by the standards body responsible for standardizing the resources represented by the managed objects (e.g. the group responsible for standardizing (N) layer protocol entities is also responsible for standardizing managed objects that represent the management view of that protocol entity). Guidelines and tools to support the definition of managed objects are provided as a collection of management information definitions and system management function definitions that support the definition of managed objects.
6.2.1 Managed Objects
A managed object is an OSI management view of a resource (such as a layer entity, a connection, or an item of physical communication equipment) that is subject to management. A managed object is therefore an abstraction of such a resource that is viewed by management (and for management purposes) and represents its properties. An essential part of the definition of a managed object is the relationship between these properties and the operational behavior of the resource. Such relationships cannot be modeled in a general way. Managed objects can be specific to a single layer, in which case they are called (N) layer managed objects. Those managed objects that are related to multiple layers, to specific system management functions (management support objects) or to the entire system are called system managed objects. 6.2.2 Attributes
An attribute is a property of a managed object. An attribute has an associated value, which may have a simple or complex structure. 6.2.3 Management operations and notifications
Part of the definition of a managed object is the set of management operations that can be performed on it and the specification of the effects of these management operations on the managed object and its attributes. If there are related managed objects, the definition may also specify the effects on them. The execution of a management operation may also be conditionally dependent on the state of a managed object or its attributes. The essential part of the definition of a management operation is a set of possible methods in which it may fail.
Managed objects may also send notifications, which contain information about the occurrence of an event that is associated with the managed object. The mechanism for transmitting management operations and notifications belongs to the OSI management standardization content, while the mechanism for executing management operations and notifications does not belong to the 443
GB/T17142-1997
(OSI management standardization content. The corresponding internal system interface does not belong to the standardization content. The relationship between the various management operations on the boundaries of the managed objects and what is transmitted in the protocols between the open systems will be described in 6.4. 6.3 Functional aspects
This clause describes the functional aspects of the system management model. A system management function may meet multiple requirements; or multiple functions may be used to meet some requirements. Therefore, there is a gap between functions and requirements. There is a many-to-many relationship.
The system management function specification defines the necessary management activities and information to meet the requirements. Management functions can be combined to accomplish specific management activities. Since not all services are always required for a given relationship, the services of the system management function may be grouped into one or more functional units, which are the basic units negotiated between MIS users. In addition, functional units that can provide multiple functional services can be defined.
Functional units that cross functional boundaries are provided to support the following set of capabilities: a) notification only;
b) management operations only;
c) notification and management operations.
Note: Negotiation of subsets of these capabilities (e.g., monitoring, control) is allowed to define other functional units. An agent cannot generally determine the purpose of the management operation it receives or the notification it sends. For example, an open system cannot generally determine whether its response to a request to read error counters will be used for fault management purposes or performance management purposes. The agent responds to requests from managers alone without requiring any broader context to execute the request. 6.4 OS1 Communication Aspects
Interaction between MIS users in the manager and agent roles is accomplished by exchanging management information. This communication is accomplished using OSI protocols.
The general OSI communication service for system management is CMIS. 6.4.1 describes how CMIS is used to support communications related to management operations and notifications applicable to managed objects in a managed system. 6.4.2 to 6.4.5 explain how the communication support fits into the application layer architecture.
MIS users may make use of other OSI services (such as TP or FTAM) that may or may not support the manager/agent role distinction; however, MIS users should still support the manager/agent role distinction. NOTE: MIS users may make use of other services. 6.4.1 Support for Management Operations and Notifications
Communication support for management operations and notifications has two aspects: a) support for the transmission of requests for management operations and notifications between MIS users; and b) support for access control to managed objects and external propagation of notification information. The main components are shown in Figure 3.
System management services have primitives for communicating requests for various types of management operations defined in ISO/IEC 17175.1, as well as primitives for transmitting notification information. In this way, system management services reflect the exchanges defined on the boundaries of managed objects. System management services provide additional support for selecting appropriate managed objects with screening and filtering. ISO/IEC 17143.1 defines how system management services are mapped to CMIS services. There is a strict correspondence between the types of exchanges defined on the boundaries of managed objects (in information models) and the communication support in system management services; however, in individual exchanges (or possible exchanges) of information, these mechanisms can participate in controlling the flow of information. Access control mechanisms may deny management operation requests for selected managed objects by specified managers. For external communications of management notifications issued by managed objects, a mechanism is defined to identify the destination of external communications and the matching principles that notification information should meet. Another mechanism can also be defined independently to record information for later retrieval. 144
GB/T17142-1997
(OSI management standardization content. The corresponding internal system interface is not part of the standardization content. The relationship between the management operations on the boundaries of the managed objects and what is transmitted in the protocols between the open systems will be described in 6.4. 6.3 Functional aspects
This clause describes the functional aspects of the system management model. A system management function may meet multiple requirements; or multiple functions may be used to meet certain requirements. Therefore, there is a many-to-many relationship between functions and requirements.
To meet the requirements , the system management function specification defines the required management activities and information. Management functions may be combined to accomplish specific management activities. Since not all services are always required for a given relationship, the services of the system management functions may be grouped into one or more functional units, which are the basic units negotiated between MIS users. In addition, functional units that can provide services of multiple functions may be defined.
Functional units that cross functional boundaries are provided to support the following set of capabilities: a) notification only;
b) management operations only;
c) notification and management operations.
Note: Negotiation of subsets of these capabilities (e.g., monitoring, control) is allowed to define other functional units. An agent cannot generally determine the purpose of the management operations it receives or the notifications it sends. For example, an open system cannot generally determine whether its response to a request to read error counters will be used for fault management purposes or performance management purposes. An agent responds to requests from managers alone without requiring any broader context to execute the request. 6.4 OS1 Communication Aspects
Interaction between MIS users in the manager and agent roles is accomplished by exchanging management information. This communication is accomplished using OSI protocols.
The generic OSI communication service for system management is CMIS. 6.4.1 describes how CMIS is used to support communications related to management operations and notifications applicable to managed objects in a managed system. 6.4.2 to 6.4.5 explain how the communication support fits into the application layer architecture.
MIS users may make use of other OSI services (such as TP or FTAM) that may or may not support the manager/agent role distinction, however, MIS users should still support the manager/agent role distinction. NOTE: MIS users may make use of other services. 6.4.1 Support for Management Operations and Notifications
Communication support for management operations and notifications has two aspects: a) Support for the transmission of requests for management operations and notifications between MIS users; and b) Support for access control to managed objects and external propagation of notification information. The main components are shown in Figure 3.
System management services have primitives for communicating requests for various types of management operations defined in GB/T 17175.1, as well as primitives for transmitting notification information. In this way, system management services reflect the exchanges defined on the boundaries of managed objects. System management services provide additional support for selecting appropriate managed objects with screening and filtering. GB/T 17143.1 defines how system management services are mapped to CMIS services. There is a strict correspondence between the types of exchanges defined on the boundaries of managed objects (in information models) and the communication support in system management services; however, in individual exchanges (or possible exchanges) of information, these mechanisms can participate in controlling the flow of information. Access control mechanisms may deny management operation requests for selected managed objects by specified managers. For external communications of management notifications issued by managed objects, a mechanism is defined to identify the destination of external communications and the matching principles that notification information should meet. Another mechanism can also be defined independently to record information for later retrieval. 1443 Functional Aspects
This clause describes the functional aspects of the system management model. A system management function may satisfy multiple requirements; or multiple functions may be used to satisfy some requirements. Therefore, there is a many-to-many relationship between functions and requirements.
The system management function specification defines the management activities and information required to satisfy the requirements. Management functions may be combined to accomplish specific management activities. Since not all services are always required for a given relationship, the services of the system management function may be grouped into one or more functional units, which are the basic units negotiated between MIS users. In addition, functional units that provide services of multiple functions may be defined.
Functional units that cross functional boundaries are provided to support the following set of capabilities: a) notification only;
b) management operations only; www.bzxz.net
c) notification and management operations.
Note: Negotiation of subsets of these capabilities (e.g., monitoring, control) is allowed to define other functional units. An agent cannot generally determine the purpose of the management operations it receives or the notifications it sends. For example, an open system cannot generally determine whether its response to a request to read error counters will be used for fault management purposes or for performance management purposes. An agent responds to requests from a manager independently without any need for any broader context to execute the request. 6.4 OS1 Communication Aspects
Interaction between MIS users in the manager and agent roles is accomplished by exchanging management information. This communication is accomplished using OSI protocols.
The generic OSI communication service for system management is CMIS. 6.4.1 describes how CMIS is used to support communications related to management operations and notifications applicable to managed objects in a managed system. 6.4.2 to 6.4.5 explain how the communication support fits into the application layer architecture.
MIS users may make use of other OSI services (such as TP or FTAM) that may or may not support the manager/agent role distinction, but the MIS user should still support the manager/agent role distinction. NOTE: MIS users may make use of other services. 6.4.1 Support for Management Operations and Notifications
Communication support for management operations and notifications has two aspects: a) Support for the transmission of requests for management operations and notifications between MIS users; b) Support for access control of managed objects and external dissemination of notification information. The main components are shown in Figure 3.
System management services have primitives for communicating requests for various types of management operations defined in ISO 17175.1, as well as primitives for transmitting notification information.

For external communications of management notifications from managed objects, a mechanism is defined to identify the destination of external communications and the matching criteria that the notification information should satisfy. Another mechanism may also be defined independently to record the information for later retrieval. 1443 Functional Aspects
