ABSTRACT:
Heterogeneous resources of an integrated network environment are managed from a single network management station by correlating information pertaining to those resources. The integrated network environment generally comprises SNA and NetBIOS entities coupled to IP routers. Address information pertaining to selected IP routers and SNA entities are acquired by the routers through a series of SNA message flows. Similarly, a series of NetBIOS message flows among those IP routers coupled to the NetBIOS entities result in the acquisition of IP and NetBIOS address information of these resources at the routers. This information is used to create an IP-centric map of the network. In addition, the SNMP agents provide name information pertaining to the SNA-specific and NetBIOS-specific resources to the console using an SNMP protocol. The name information are overlaid on the map to facilitate monitoring of those specific resources by the SNMP tool.
