ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to communication network technology, more particularly to a hierarchical network management system on a distributed network management platform. The system is a network management system with multi-layer structure. It can manage large scale network through hierarchical configuration of numerous network management stations and classification of the management domains. For instance, the system may include upper layer network management stations and lower layer network management stations, in which the upper layer network management station has the functions such as configuring and monitoring the lower layer network management stations with help of corresponding devices, while the lower layer network management station provides services of data collecting, reporting and monitoring for the network management via simple network management protocol (SNMP). The hierarchical management system is flexible and expandable, and can reduce network load caused by large scale network management, and improve management performance.
