            Abstract : 
The paper presents techniques for applying the telecommunications management network (TMN) concept to a distributed communications node system with common platform software. Frameworks are presented for ensuring efficiently flexible design of managed objects (MOs) and software components in the distributed communications node system. Based on these frameworks, agent functions are proposed for establishing a telecommunications management network on the distributed communications node system. A method is presented for adding software components with new managed objects for easy development and maintenance of the system
