In the following description of the present invention, if it is determined that a detailed description of a related known function or configuration may unnecessarily obscure the subject matter of the present invention, the detailed description thereof will be omitted.

1 is a network diagram according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 1, in order to manage equipment constituting a frame relay network in an integrated high speed national network management system according to an embodiment of the present invention, a high speed national network facility management system 110 in charge of managing facilities of a high speed national network This exists. In addition, there is a frame relay gateway system 120 that transmits and receives facility information of a frame relay network through interworking with the high speed national network facility management system 110 and a web service. The two systems 110 and 120 exist in different domains, respectively, and the two systems 110 and 120 perform interworking functions through web service interworking through a web server. The frame relay gateway system 120 manages network configuration equipment states of the frame relay network 140 including a plurality of frame relay exchanges (FR exchanges) 130.

2 is a flowchart illustrating a frame relay network configuration equipment management method in an integrated network management system according to an embodiment of the present invention. In an embodiment of the present invention, the frame relay network configuration equipment management is performed by the frame relay gateway system 120 as follows.

Referring to FIG. 2, first, the frame relay gateway system 120 receives facility information on components of the frame relay network from the high speed national network facility management system 110 (step 201). And since the web service is interlocked, after receiving the facility information, the response to the reception is sent to the high-speed national network facility management system 110 (step 202). The frame relay gateway system 120 then determines the type of the facility information received (step 203).

If the type of the received facility information is about 'adding new facility information' (step 204), the facility information (i.e. facility information on the network component equipment) installed in the frame relay network 140 through remote access is determined. The current state and existence is checked (step 205). Subsequently, it is checked whether data of the facility information checked in step 205 matches facility information received from the facility management system 110 (step 206).

As a result of the determination of step 206, if the data of the confirmed facility information and the received facility information do not match, the result is notified to the facility management system 110 (step 215).

However, as a result of the determination of step 206, if the data of the confirmed facility information and the received facility information match, after storing the corresponding facility information in the database inside the gateway system 120 (step 207), the facility management system ( 110, the result is notified (step 215).

As a result of the determination in step 203, if the type of the received facility information is about 'change to current facility information' (step 208), whether the information is current information in a database inside the gateway system 120; Check (step 209). Subsequently, if there is currentization information in the database inside the gateway system 120, the facility information is collected through remote access (step 205). However, if there is no currentization information in the database inside the gateway system 120, a change command is issued even though there is no addition of a new facility on the frame relay network 140, and thus the facility management system 110 is notified of the result. (Step 215).

As a result of the determination in step 203, if the type of the received facility information is about 'deletion of facility information' (step 210), the gateway system 120 first checks whether there is information currently present in an internal database. Confirm (step 211). If there is no current information in the internal database, since the deletion command is issued for the facility that is not current, the facility management system 110 is notified of the result (step 215).

However, as a result of the determination in step 211, if there is current information in the internal database, the gateway system 120 collects facility information installed through remote access (step 212). Then, it is determined whether the corresponding facility information exists using the collected facility information (step 213). As a result of the determination in step 213, if the facility information exists, the facility deletion command is incorrectly issued from the facility management system 110 without deleting the facility. Notify (step 215).

However, if the facility information cannot be found as a result of the determination in step 213, since the facility information has already been removed from the network, the facility information is deleted from the database of the gateway system 120 (step 214) and the result is installed. The management system 110 is notified (step 215).

As such, the gateway system 120 notifies the facility management system 110 of the result of performing the procedure, and then confirms the response that the reception has been received from the facility management system 110 (step 216). If the facility management system 110 does not receive a response, the result retransmission process is performed again (step 16).

3 is a flowchart illustrating a method for managing frame relay network configuration equipment in an integrated network management system according to an embodiment of the present invention. In the embodiment of the present invention, when a change occurs in the equipment configuring the frame relay network by the frame relay gateway system 120, management is performed by the following process.

First, upon receipt of subscriber subscription information (step 301), the gateway system 120 checks the currentization information of the RF exchange included in the subscription information (step 302). The gateway system 120 then performs a subscriber subscription process based on the current facility information (step 303). The gateway system 120 notifies the subscription processing result when the subscriber subscription processing is successful (step 305).

However, if the gateway system 120 fails in the subscription process, it is determined whether the failure occurred because the subscription process based on the current facility information does not match the actual facility information (step 304). As a result of the determination in step 304, if the failure of the subscription processing is due to a mismatch between the current facility information and the actual facility information, the FR configuration management module (not shown) configured inside the gateway system 120. Request the collection of infrastructure information in the corresponding FR exchange 130 (step 306). Here, the FR exchanger 130 constituting the frame relay network of the high speed national network has three sub-devices: a processor element (PE), a peripheral interface (PI), and a PORT. Here PORT is a device that accepts real subscribers. And a device managing several ports is a PI, and a device managing several PIs is a PE.

Subsequently, the gateway system 120 checks the PE information in the infrastructure information collected in the corresponding RF exchange 130 (step 307).

The gateway system 120 compares the PE information with the current PE information (step 308) among the collected lower facility information in the corresponding FR exchange 130 (step 308). Request the facility to be activated (step 312). If the facility information on the PE and the currentization information match, next, the facility information on the PI is checked (step 309), and then the facility information and the current information on the PI are compared (step 310). As such, if there is inconsistency in the process of comparing the facility information and the currentization information on the PI, the facility management system 110 requests the facility actualization (step 312). However, if the information on the PI and the current information match, the facility information on the PORT is checked (step 311), and then the facility management system 110 is requested to make the facility current. After receiving the command for the actualization of the facility information from the facility management system 110 (step 313), after performing the facility management command processing so that the physical information and the logical information about the configuration equipment can be managed to match ( Step 314), the facility management command processing result is notified (step 315). Subsequently, after the subscription is processed, the subscription processing result is notified (step 316).

The apparatus for managing a frame relay network configuration device in an integrated network management system interworking with a web service according to the present invention may be embodied as computer readable codes on a computer readable recording medium. The computer-readable recording medium includes all kinds of recording devices in which data that can be read by a computer system is stored. Examples of computer-readable recording media include ROM, RAM, CD-ROM, magnetic tape, floppy disk, optical data storage, and the like, and also include those implemented in the form of carrier waves such as transmission over the Internet. The computer readable recording medium can also be distributed over network coupled computer systems so that the computer readable code is stored and executed in a distributed fashion.
