An Intelligent Alternative Approach to the efficient Network
Management

Abstract: Due to the increasing complexity and heterogeneity of
networks and services, many efforts have been made to develop intelligent
techniques for management. Network intelligent management is a key technology
for operating large heterogeneous data transmission networks. This paper
presents a proposal for an architecture that integrates management object
specifications and the knowledge of expert systems. We present a new approach
named Integrated Expert Management, for learning objects based on expert
management rules and describe the design and implementation of an integrated
intelligent management platform based on OSI and Internet management models. The
main contributions of our approach is the integration of both expert system and
managed models, so we can make use of them to construct more flexible
intelligent management network. The prototype SONAP (Software for Network
Assistant and Performance) is accuracy-aware since it can control and manage a
network. We have tested our system on real data to the fault diagnostic in a
telecommunication system of a power utility. The results validate the model and
show a significant improvement with respect to the number of rules and the error
rate in others systems.
