Abstract: Method and systems for user authentication are provided according to the embodiments of the invention. The method mainly includes: sending, by a management station, an authentication request message of an authentication protocol to a managed device via a management protocol, and sending user authentication information to the managed device; and authenticating the user by the managed device via the authentication protocol or a authentication server based on the received user authentication information, and returning an authentication acknowledgement message of the authentication protocol carrying the authentication result to the management station via the management protocol. The system mainly includes a management station and a managed device; or, a management station, a managed device and a backend authentication server. With the present invention, methods and systems for user authentication with a good extensibility and a widened application are provided.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide a method and a system for obtaining home agent information of a mobile node. The method includes: when a DHCPv6 server receives a request message from a mobile node, it obtains the home agent information of the mobile node; the DHCPv6 server includes the home agent information into the response message, and sends the response to the mobile node. With embodiments of the present invention, a mobile node may obtain its home agent information (such as its home agent address information) simultaneously when it requests related information. When the request message is a home address request message or a care-of address request message, the invention provides a clearly defined process for a mobile node to obtain home agent information when it is started up on a home link or foreign link. The invention avoids a special message interaction procedure to obtain home agent information.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for processing alarm/event information are disclosed. The method includes: parsing received notification information that includes uniformly sorted alarm/event information; and obtaining the uniformly sorted alarm/event information. The apparatus includes: a parsing module, configured to parse received notification information that includes uniformly sorted alarm/event information; and a processing module, configured to obtain the uniformly sorted alarm/event information.

Abstract: A method for initialization configuration of a managed device, includes: predefining and storing initial configuration information of the managed device; detecting a message requesting for IP address assignment broadcasted from the managed device; searching in the initial configuration information for the message requesting for IP address assignment, to obtain an IP address of a Device Management (DM) interface of the managed device; sending the IP address to the managed device; upon determining that the managed device has configured its IP address as the IP address, sending an initial configuration command to the managed device; and performing automatically the initialization configuration of the managed device in accordance with the initial configuration information. A system for initialization configuration of a managed device is also provided.

Abstract: The invention relates to a configuration and management development system for MPLS VPN in the network management field of a data communication. The development system is a three-dimensional structure, which includes first dimension of view layer, second dimension of management layer and third dimension of TCP/IP layer, and each layer is divided into several sub-layers. MPLS VPN can be implemented in various different ways with the development system; software having better adaptability can be developed. With the development system, configuration and management software for MPLS VPN can be rapidly designed and implemented. The configuration and management software, developed with the development system, has a modularized structure with clear specification and a better expandability.
