CAN/CSA-ISO/IEC-12060-1-96 (R2009)

The international community has decided to make this standard available only in the English language version. It has been adopted as a National Standard of Canada on this basis. This National Standard of Canada is equivalent to International Standard ISO/IEC ISP 12060-1:1995. 1 Scope 1.1 General This part of ISO/IEC ISP 12060 specifies the General management capabilities profile, AOM211, which is applicable to end systems operating in the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) environment. AOM211 specifies a combination of OSI standards, which collectively provide General management capabilities. These capabilities include the ability to create and delete any managed object instance, retrieve and modify any attribute, report any event, and initiate any action. These capabilities further include a specific set of reporting services for object creation, object deletion, attribute value change, state change, relationship change, and alarm; and attribute modification and retrieval services for a specific set of state and relationship attributes and attribute groups. AOM211 also specifies use of a combination of standards that collectively provide the Common Management Information Service required by this part of ISO/IEC ISP 12060. The support of the complete set of operation and notification services and the management attributes does not imply that all these features shall be used in all instances of communications. The selection of the features depends on the requirements of the MIS-users. The definitions and conventions used in this part of ISO/IEC ISP 12060 are specified in ISO/IEC ISP 12059-0, Common definitions for management function profiles.
