<p>A computer network management software agent which includes the ability for users to add new user defined management objects. A user editable text file (208) defines object identifications (302, 306), object types (312), and the path and name of associated executable software (308, 314). A user can then invoke user defined executable software at a managed node (104, 108) by sending a network command and a user defined associated object identifier to the agent (106, 110, 200) in the managed node. Data can be sent between a user and user defined executable software. A timeout feature generates an error if commands are not completed within a user defined time. <IMAGE></p> |
