ABSTRACT:
A system and method for managing network resources using distributed intelligence and state management is described. Individual entities are defined for each managed network resource. A plurality of entities in one or more levels of a network management system are organized based upon association and containment relationships. Each of the individual entities has an associated state value. State changes are propagated between the individual entities through state change notifications. Upon receipt of a state change notification, an entity determines whether its own state is affected. An entity can also initiate actions to improve its state.
