ABSTRACT:
A device for mediating information management in a communications network for communications with a given network element having a given management-information protocol includes a NEDL file defining a structured network-element-description-language (NEDL) format referencing information-management roles pertaining to the given network element in accordance with the network-element management-information protocol; and a processor coupled to the NEDL file for recomposing messages received from of for communication to the network element. The mediation device may be configured for a given network element by adapting the NEDL file to define the management roles, parameters and resources of the given network element. Configurable systems for mediating information management between one or more network elements respectively having different management-information protocols and one or more operations support systems respectively having different management-information protocols include one or more mediation devices and a control unit for selectively connecting and/or configuring the mediation device(s) for mediating information management between selected network element(s) and selected operations support system(s). Computer readable storage media for use with a processor included in an information-management system are configured for causing and/or enabling a processor to perform various functions, respectively including (i) recognizing different predetermined message patterns within received messages and (ii) recomposing received messages.
