The basic concept of network management and content Network management refers to the supervision, organization and contro

From the technical point of view, the network management process typically includes data acquisition, data processing, and then submitted to the manager, for use in network operations. It may
14、also include an analysis of the data and provide solutions, even while managers may not need to bother to handle some things. Further it can generate useful management reports management network. Network management goal is to ensure normal operation of a continuous network, or when the network when

With the development and popularization of computer networks, network management is increasingly important. Not powerful management tools and effective management of technology is unable to

17、ter network of individuals and enterprises are increasingly becoming an indispensable tool for daily activities. Many companies, state organs and institutions of higher learning need to use every day on the network data such as e-mail and fax, video conferencing and voice services, etc. to ensure th

On the other hand the composition of the computer more and more complex, it is mainly manifested in the increasingly large scale networking, and networking equipment is a heterogeneous multi-device, multi-manufacturer environment, multi-protocol, there is no doubt this new situation
19、 increase the difficulty of network management. Management of such networks by hand is a powerless, so the network management is an urgent task. 2)The goal of network management Network management goal is to reduce the fault time, to improve and enhance the response time, improve equipment utilizati

From the measurement and modeling using the knowledge gained to achieve the ra

Flow measurement of many categories, such as by measuring the way, is divided into active and passive measurement measurement; a

So far, people do most of the projects involve the active measurement techniques, such as the United States, NIMI project, using ping, traceroute, mtrace other active measurement tools.
