  • Optimized path establishment method and network management system using the method
    Patent number: 7221646
    Abstract: A method used for establishing an optimized path between two endpoints in a transmission network including subnetworks is provided. In the method, two endpoints and route selection elements are specified, a first route search is performed to search for route candidates each of which connects subnetworks by using data on network resources according to the route selection elements, and the route candidates is stored in a dynamic routing table. Then, at least a route candidate is selected as a selected route candidate according to the route selection elements, and a second route search is performed to search for a route connecting network elements in each subnetwork on the selected route candidate.

  • Network management method and apparatus
    Publication number: 20020188708
    Abstract: A network managing method automatically detects an agent apparatus even if the agent apparatus has a severe security function so that an automatic registration can be performed from the agent apparatus to a manager apparatus. A message for detection is transmitted from the manager apparatus to a plurality of agent apparatuses which constitute a network. The message for detection is given a community name for management. Automatic detection is performed according to a message for management returned from each agent apparatus. The message for management includes management information. Each agent apparatus is managed by the manager apparatus.
