Abstract
At present there is very little coordination
between Network Operation Centers (NOC)
across organizational domains or across the
Internet. Our goal is to create a model to
facilitate this process. We introduce the concept
of Application MIBs and Knowledge
Management Gateway for structuring knowledge
management across multiple NOCs. SNMP
Network Element (NE) Management
Information Base (MIB) agents are used to
gather network information and application
MIBs are used as a metric for a Mission-Policy-
Metrics-{Sense-Analyze-Adapt} feedback loop
that is used to analyze the effectiveness of
network operations. We believe that the
combination of collaborative technology,
enhanced application MIBs, and multiple agents
that execute the relationships of the adaptation
loop will create a desirable knowledge
management architecture for Knowledge
Management Gateways. This architecture will
not only enhance NOC efficiency but could also
lead to prioritization of network applications and
the creation of a multiple level NOC
collaborative environment.
