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 10164-3:1993. 1 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 attributes for representing relationships and consists of service 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 attributes for representing relationships; - establishes a model that relates the service and generic definitions provided by this function to user requirements; - defines the services provided by the function; - defines generic attribute types, 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 the service and management operations and notifications; - specifies compliance requirements placed on other standards that makes 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 this function; - specify the manner in which management is accomplished by the user of this function; - define the nature of any interactions that result in the use of this 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.
