ABSTRACT:
Methods, apparatuses, and systems for managing a network with a non-system class loader via remote method invocation are described. A method includes transferring the Java remote method invocation (RMI) call to a network element in order to obtain a version of the management software associated with the network element. The method further includes determining if a requested class to be loaded by a class loader based on the RMI call belongs to a system namespace or a non-system namespace. The method further includes obtaining a byte code associated with the requested class from a class hash with a class name key if the requested class belongs to the non-system namespace. The method further includes loading the requested class and associated byte code to a Java virtual machine with a non-system class loader if the requested class belongs to the non-system namespace.
