CAN/CSA-ISO/IEC 10164-1-95 (R2014)

Scope This Recommendation / International Standard defines a systems management function which may be used by an application process in a centralized or decentralized management environment to interact for the purposes of systems management, as defined by CCITT Rec. X.700 / ISO/IEC 7498-4. This Recommendation / International Standard defines the object management function that consists of services, functional units, and generic definitions. It is positioned in the application layer of CCITT Rec. X.200 / ISO 7498 and is defined according to the model provided by ISO/IEC 9545. The role of systems management functions are described by CCITT Rec. X.701 / ISO/IEC 10040. This Recommendation / International Standard establishes user requirements for the object management function; establishes a model that relates the services and generic definitions provided by this function to user requirements; defines the services provided by the function; defines generic notification types and parameters documented in accordance with CCITT Rec. X.722 / ISO/IEC 10165-4; specifies the protocol that is necessary in order to provide the services; defines the relationship between these services and management operations and notifications; specifies compliance requirements placed on other Standards that make use of these generic definitions; defines relationships with other systems management functions; specifies conformance requirements. This Recommendation / International Standard does not define the nature of any implementation intended to provide the object management function; specify the manner in which management is accomplished by the user of the object management function; define the nature of any interactions which result in the use of the object management function; specify the services necessary for the establishment, normal and abnormal release of a management association; preclude the definition of further notification types; define managed objects.
