Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

In order to enhance flexibility,intelligence and efficiency of Fault Management and overcome disadvantages in traditional centralized Network Fault Management,this paper describes the network fault management frameworks based on SNMP(Simple Network Management Protocol) and Mobile Agent respectively.Then,detailed comparison between both schems has been made in terms of theory and practice.The result indicates that Mobile Agent based Network Fault Management System can provide an efficient,real-time and accurate management on the managed network taking advantage of the characteristics of mobility,intelligence and flexibility of mobile agent in contrast to the former.Especially ,it shows great advantages in managing complex networks.
