database server, server and client. The comprehensive structure
of NetNumen N31 system is shown in Figure 1.
FIGURE 1 NETNUMEN N31 SYSTEM COMPREHENSIVE STRUCTURE
Client
NMSSever DB server
NE NE NE NE NE NE
In the NetNumen N31 system, the server takes charge of the

communication among management objects, database and
server and information processing. The communication among
different components of NetNumen N31 system is through
TCP/IP protocol. The protocols such as RMI, SNMP, CORBA, HTTP
used by the senior are running over TCP/IP protocol.
The client provides NetNumen N31 operation terminal. The
NetNumen N31 operators can access NetNumen N31 centre in
the form of client to do NetNumen N31 operations in the rights
range anywhere in the network after the safety authentication.

NetNumen N31 NetNumen N31 system has two networking

modes: out-of-band and in-band.
In the out-of-band mode, NetNumen N31 NetNumen N31
system accesses IP network through Ethernet interface in the
front panel of NE master control panel. NetNumen N31
centre accesses this IP network in the similar way to realize
the direct IP internetworking between NetNumen N31 system
and NE.
The advantage of out-of-band mode: NetNumen N31
channel and service channel are totally independent and
isolated. In case of service channel failure, NetNumen N31
system information flow is not interrupted. Different NE has
no direct connections so that the failure of one NE does not
affect other NE management.
In the in-band mode, NetNumen N31 system accesses IP
network through the uplink interface. NetNumen N31 centre
accesses this IP network in the similar way to realize the
direct IP internetworking between NetNumen N31 system
and NE. Through this network interface, NetNumen N31
system can communicate with different NE.
The advantage of in-band mode: transmitting NetNumen
N31 information through service channel has no necessary
to set up a special NetNumen N31 network, which makes
networking more flexible and more convenient.
