Abstract :
The architecture and functionalities of a system that permit updating management information, represented by managed objects within the management information base (MIB), are presented. These managed objects are an abstract representation of the managed resources of the network. The system interacts with the heterogeneous underlaying networks through a module called the integrator. Its role is to hide the complexity and the heterogeneity of access to the heterogeneous underlaying resources. A prototype integrator has been developed
