Network Management Roadmap
Goals:
Achieve standards-based network management
Phase out proprietary screen-scraping scripts
Manage networks, not just network devices
First develop and deploy the management protocol (1 year)
Decoupled from the data model
Allow for data retrieval and notifications but focus on configuration tasks
Start with a lightweight protocol and proprietary data models to gain operational experience
Then develop a standard data model (2 – 5 years)
Build on existing MIB and SMI experience
Gradually replace proprietary data models with standard data models developed in protocol WGs (similar to MIB process)
