A Policy-based Network Control Methodology for Large-scale IP Network

Many different types of network equipments are deployed in a large-scale IP network. In this operating environment, network service providers suffer from difficulty in controlling various equipments simultaneously in case network faults happen in their overall or regional network due to physical link failure or abnormal traffic. This paper presents a policy-based methodology to control many different types of network equipments at the same time in abnormal cases. The key idea is that NMS(Network Management System) keeps vendor-neutral control policies in normal times and that when an abnormal case occurs in network, NMS transforms the selected policy into vendor-specific control commands and enforces them to various equipments simultaneously.
