Final
Charter for
Working Group
The Alert Management Working Group is chartered with defining and
developing techniques to manage the flow of asynchronously generated
information between a manager (NOC) and its remote managed entities.
The output of this group should be fully compatible with the letter and
spirit of SNMP (RFC 1067) and CMOT (RFC 1095).

Dec 1990

Write an RFC detailing the above. Since the implementation of these mechanisms is protocol dependent, the goal of this RFC would be to offer guidance only. It would request a status of ``optional''. |

May 1990
|
Develop, implement, and test mechanisms to prevent a managed entity from generating locally an excess of alerts to be controlled. This system will focus on how a protocol or MIB object might internally prevent itself from generating an unreasonable amount of information. |
