<p>Efficient network management techniques for use in wireless environments are disclosed. In one embodiment of the present invention, a network system includes a server-client architecture, where a number of mobile clients (e.g., cell phones, PDAs, smart phones) wirelessly access and interact with the system via jack service points. The server uses an SNMP proxy. The server periodically collects data from the jack service points (or other network device), converts it into SNMP-compliant MIB representations, and caches the most recently collected data on the SNMP proxy. A network monitoring station (NMS) communicates with the SNMP proxy rather than directly with jack service points in the field. As such, no SNMP agent is necessary on the individual jack service points (or other network device).</p> |
