Method for detecting the isolation condition between agent and manager processing entities in a telecommunications network management system

摘要

Described is a method for detecting the isolation condition between Agent and Manager processing entities in a telecommunications network management system using a connection-less communication protocol, that provides for detecting the isolation through the simulation of the establishment of a connection. It consists in the periodic exchange between the Manager and the Agent of a polling message sent by the Manager to the Agent and of a polling response sent by the Agent to the Manager, and in the consequent receipt check of said messages. <IMAGE>
