Information Technology - Open Systems Interconnection - Systems Management: Metric Objects and Attributes - Incorporating Corrigendum No.1: July 2003
 N CAN/CSA-ISO/IEC 10164-11-97

Annotation

This Recommendation I International Standard defines the metric objects and attributes function. The metric objects and attributes function is a systems management function which may be used by an application process in a centralised or decentralised management environment to interact for the purpose of systems management, as defined by CCITT Rec. X.700 I ISO/IEC 7498-4. This Recommendation I International Standard defines a function which consists of generic definitions. This function is positioned in the application layer of the OSI reference model, CCITT Rec. X.200 I ISO 7498, and is defined according to the model provided by ISO 9545. The role of systems management functions is described by CCITT Rec. X.701 I ISO/IEC 10040.

This Recommendation I International Standard

- identifies the set of requirements satisfied by the function;

- provides a model for the behaviour of general metric objects;

- provides a model for the behaviour of the metric objects defined in this Recommendation I International Standard;

- specifies the management requirements of the function and how these are realised by specification of managed objects and their behaviour;

- specifies the abstract syntax of the parameters of the MAPDUs that will be used to refer to managed objects and their attributes; and

- defines managed objects.
