  • Publication number: 20140148151
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method and device for subscribing to an RLF report. An integration reference point manager configures a subscription condition for an RLF report for an integration reference point agent. The integration reference point manager obtains an RLF report that is sent by the integration reference point agent and satisfies the subscription condition. The embodiments of the present invention can avoid the case in the prior art that a base station sends an RLF report obtained from a UE, to an IRPManager through an IRPAgent in a best-effort mode, thereby decreasing the load of information transferred between the IRPManager and the IRPAgent.

  • Publication number: 20080086561
    Abstract: A method for the network management server to get the log information from the network element device comprises: firstly, the network element device allocates a section of the memory resource as the log buffer, and stores the log information generated by the network element device in the log buffer; then, the network element device detects dynamically the residual capacity of the log buffer, and when the residual capacity of the log buffer is less than the special threshold, it notifies the network management server to fetch the log information. The present invention can avoid the loss of the log information of network element device to ensure the categoricalness of the log information.
