        ACTIVITIES/ACCOMPLISHMENTS AT SEPTEMBER MEETING

                  Charter and SIG Name Change

- In recognition of on-going and future work beyond 
the scope of managing just network technologies and OSI 
technologies, and in recognition that management technlogies 
of interest to the group are applicable to managing various 
information technology sysems, and in recognition that 
management technologies other than just OSI management are of 
interest to the Group, the name of the NMSIG was changed to 
the Systems and Network Management SG (SNMSIG). A revised 
charter with attendant work plan summaries was accepted 
(NMSIG-94/350) and will be incorporated into Part 1, section 
4.8.8 of the OIW Working Agreements. The new name and charter 
were liaised (NMSIG-94/374) to all relevant partner and 
otherwise related organizations. This charter change formally 
sanctions support of the SNMSIG to other related OIW 
activities such as those associated with the Email Management 
Working Group, the Distributed Systems Management Workng 
Group, and the Performance Management Working Group. 

                     ISO/RWS-CC Liaions
  
- Because of recent industry concern about industry (re-)use 
of compilable versions of GDMO derived from standards (such 
as ISO/IEC 10164-x, ISO/IEC 10165-x, and ITU-T G.744) being 
potentially  perceived to be copy right violations of ISO/IEC 
and ITU-T publications, and therefore because of the 
purported stoppage by some vendors from implementing products 
which include managed objects with such DMO, a liaison 
(NMSIG-94/351) was generated requesting the Regional Workshop 
Coordinating Committee to send a formal request to ISO/IEC 
and ITU-T to waive copy right on GDMO in all standards with 
embedded GDMO.

- In order to maintain a timely flow of OSI management 
standards and other documents into the SNMSIG, a liaison 
(NMSIG-94/352) was generated requesting that C. Michael 
Chernick be designated as the liaison officer between ISO/IEC 
SC21/WG4 and the OIW SNMSIG.

                     Security Management

- Security and security management topics were discussed in 
joint session of the SECSIG and NMSIG

- It was reported that the SECSIG would continue considering 
what work it might undertake with respect to the Security 
Association Management Protcol (SAMP) which may have value 
in managing certain aspects of the security services for OSI 
system management communications. It was agreed that there 
would be another joint SECSIG/SNMSIG meeting in December 1994 
at which the SAMP topic would be reviewed as well as other 
potential topics associated with managing security services.

- It was reported that the SECSIG would be involved with the 
development of a security integrity transforation pDISP. 
Accordingly, it was felt that this pDISP work should also be 
considered at the joint meeting in December; and, that any 
alignment of, and/or errata to the OIW Stable Agreements on,  
GULS (and/or management use of GULS agreements) relative to 
the security integrity transformation pDISP should also be 
considered.

- It was agreed that the SECSIG would begin development of 
security confidentiality working agreements based on the GULS 
base standard; and, that accordingly the SNMSIG would, in 
parallel, develop woking agreements on the management use of 
these new security confidentiality agreements. Review of 
these topics would also occur at the December joint meeting.   

- In recognition of new security/security management efforts 
in ANSI T1M1 (NMSIG-94/340), it was decided that attempts 
should be made to re-establish a liaison relationship between 
the NMSIG and T1M1. It was agreed that by the time of the 
next T1M1 meeting in mid Novembr 1994, a liaison (NMSIG-
94/360) would be conveyed indicating that it is felt that (a) 
security management pDISPs currently under joint development 
by the RWs would meet certain T1M1 requrements, (b) OIW 
Stable Agreements on GULS (IS0 11586, Generic Upper Layer 
Security) would met certain other T1M1 requirements, (c) yet 
other of the T1M1 requirements might drive new RW profiling 
activities, such as the development of new OIW agreements on 
a GULS-based confidentiality service and the RW's development 
of new security/security management profiles, and (d) because 
of these various relationships, re-invigoration of a 
differently-foused, yet non-the-less symbiotic, liaison 
between T1M1 and the NMSIG/SECSIG would be useful. Mr. Hal 
Folts believed that he could act as a liaison officer 

- Subsequent to the OIW Meeting, it was ascertained that Mr. 
Lee LaBarre had received support to accept the Regional 
Workshop editorship of the profile(s) associated with the 
Objects and Attributes for Access Control standard (ISO/IEC 
IS 10164-9. The time duration and international travel 
available through his support is limited. A workplan and 
potentially a first WD pDISP are expected to be available by 
the time of the December 1994 OIW meetings.


                       Conformance

 - Joseph Ghetie, OIW point of contact for PT27 (CMIP ISP 
conformance), gave a status report of the work of PT27 and of 
the OIW contributions to PT27. Having now expanded and 
harmonized the CTS3-NM inputs to PT27 to include an ISP 
11183-orientation with several Abstract Test Suites (ATSs) 
and test cases, it is felt that the PT27 outputs now reflect 
good work that should be fast tracked to standardize CMIP 
Profile Test Suites (PTSs).  Accordingly, a liaison (NMSIG-
94/353) was generated that (a) endorsed the stability and 
comprehensiveness of the CMIP Test Suite Structure and Test 
Management Protocol (TSS&TP), the CMIP ATS/PTS, and Upper 
Layer Test Management Protocol Interfaces, (b) endorsed 
submission of the CMIP PTS to ISO SGFS, (c) endorsed the 
position to skip ROSE ATS work which would address 
applications-independent test cases (for ROSE and for CMI), 
and (d) appointed J. Ghetie as the OIW representative to the 
final PT27 approval meeting in Ictiber 1994.

- P. Brusil announced that the EWOS Project Team 28 focused 
on managed object (MO) conformance testing was commencing and 
that he would act as the OIW coordinator and point-of-
contact. It is expected that a small group of SNMSIG members 
will be rcruited to support OIW contributions to PT28. It 
was also noted that there were several other efforts underway 
that may have relevance to the PT28 focus area. These other 
areas include (a) the PREPARE project in Europe that 
apparently includes aspects of MO interoperability testing, 
(b) the PROST project in the U.K. that apparently has as one 
of its goals the validation of the CTS3-NM MO conformance 
testing methodology that was delivered to PT27, and (c) the 
Electronic Communication Implementation Forum (ECIF), 
formerly the Electronic Bonding Forum, that purportedly 
includes within its aegise end-to-end management testing. The 
exact nature of these three activities will be investigated 
and, as appropriate, relevant feedback will be forwarded to 
PT28.

- P. Kerr, from the Defense Information Systems Agency's 
(DISA's) Joint Interoperability Test Center (JITC), announced 
the potential U.S. government development of formal test 
methodologies, ATSs, and so on for Intenet Protocol Suite 
(IPS) management technologies. It was pointed out that some 
of the difficuly associated with such work is that because 
of ambiguities in IPS management specifications, such as 
SNMPv1, there are undocumented community resolutions of 
ambiguities. It was felt that the SNMSIG would want to keep 
abreast of any further activities that might be pursued by 
DISA/JITC and/or others.

                            CULR

- The SNMSIG referred to the OIW Upper Layer SIG, the AOW 
NMSIG input (NMSIG-94/320) relative to the CULR ISP -11188. 
Because of the CULR ballot cycle, it was suggested by the OIW 
ULSIG that this input should be formally brought forward as 
National Body comments during the CULR balloting process.


                 Enterprise Systems Management

- A. Tang reported (NMSIG-94/345) on progress in developing 
ensembles oriented for the Enterprise Management of 
electronic mail and networks. It was noted that a targeted 
user of such ensembles would be the CDPD cellular 
telecommunications industry wherein (a) Email Management 
ensembles would be useful for managing CDPD's X.400 service 
used for CDPD billing, and (b) the Lower Layers Ensembles 
would be used in managing CDPD's CLNP. 

- A. Tang reported (NMSIG-94/345) on progress in developing 
frameworks for Enterprise Network Management (NMSIG-94/343) 
and Enterprise Email Management (NMSIG-94/342). These 
frameworks are deemded necessary prior to developing 
ensembles pertinent to each area, such as the Network Status 
Monitoring Ensemble (NMSIG-94/277) and the Email Systems 
Monitoring Ensemble (NMSIG-94/344), respectively. Upon 
discussion, it was felt that a goal should be to determine if it is possible to create just one framework; and, to refine 
the network status monitoring and mail management frameworks 
from it. It is noted that other ensembles, such as the INTAP 
LAN Fault Management ensemble, are not apparently based on 
some guiding framework; and, that the notion of a framework 
would be useful.

- A.Tang introduced the Network Status Monitoring, Net Stat 
Mon, Ensemble (NMSIG-94/277). The purpose of this ensemble is 
to achieve integrated LAN management, not to replace SNMP 
MIBs. This ensemble differs from the INTAP LAN Fault 
Management ensemble (NMSIG-94/230R) in that the Net Stat Mon 
ensemble (a) uses different domain concepts and includes and 
builds upon the concept of recursive subdomains, and (b) 
expands the monitoring capabilities to include performance 
monitoring. The plan is to incorporate FDDI monitoring 
shortly; and, to review the work in detail before, or during, 
the December 1994 OIW.

- A discussion was initiated, and will be continued 
electronically, regarding what would be the best method(s) 
for deriving GDMO-based management information (e.g., for the 
Net Stat Mon Ensemble) when such GDMO-based management 
information is related to management information that is also 
defined in extant SNMP-based MIBs. The method currently used 
in developing the GDMO for the Net Stat Mon ensemble 
apparently is a form of abstract translation of, e.g., the 
IPS RMON MIB. There are, however, arguments that favor the 
IIMC approach for deriving GDMO from the extant IPS RMON MIB.

- A. Tang reported on plans to develop other ensembles 
oriented toward Enterprise Management. These include (a) a 
Back-Up Ensemble, and (b) a Load Sharing Management Ensemble. 
The former will build upon the ISO/IEC 10164-19 draft 
pertinent to domains as well as upon X/Open Systems 
Management work on Back-Up to provide management restoration 
transparency. The latter is focused on collaborative 
management computing (a.k.a. management bandwidth 
transparency) and could be used, e.g., to coordinate hand-
over of management responsibilities between different management 
centers.  

- H.Folts and E.Zeisler presented the first results of their 
work toward developing a framework for ensembles (NMSIG-
94/335). The reaction was mixed with some indicating support 
and others indicating that the work was obscure and that it 
was not obvious how it could be used. There was discussion as 
to some of the additions that might b useful to its 
companion (lower layer) network model in order for the model 
to be applicable o ensembles oriented for upper layer and 
systems/applications management. It was also deemed 
appropriate that this framework be harmonized with those 
being progressed by A.Tang for Enterprise Network Management 
and Enterprise Email Management. It was understood that at 
least some of the NMSIG comments would be folded in to the 
work before it was presented at the NMF General Meeting in 
October 1994. The OIW NMSIG offered to provide further 
comments/inputs as the work evolves. 


                    Email Management

- The Email Management Group's meeting, scheduled for late 
September 1994, was canceled. The group intends to progress 
sme of its work, such as the Enterprise Email Management 
Framework (NMSIG-94/342) and the two email management 
ensembles (NMSIG-94/341 and /344), via electronic discussions. 
These documents were introduced by A. Tang at the Sept. 1994 
OIW. At the Sept OIW it was noted that the email message 
tracking/tracing ensemble is not oriented to management of 
resources; rather, it provides a kind of fault management 
capability for email messages.

- The Email Management Group, while being focused in the 
interim on eforts within the Electronic Mail Association 
(EMA), intends to meet, both independently and jointly with 
the NMSIG, at the Dec 1994 OIW.

 
                   Management Coexistence

- M. Chernick introduced the X/Open and NMF Joint Interdomain 
Management (JIDM) documents (MSIG-94/084, /244-246) related 
to matters of coexistence of ISO systems management 
technology, Internet management technology, OMG management 
technology and ISO Open Distributed Processing technology. 
X/Open and the NMF had made these documents available to the 
NMSI with the caveat that these documents are for limited 
distribution to only those personnel willing to critique the 
documents. One reviewer had been identified by the call for 
participation issued after during the summer.  There was some 
additional interest evident at the Sept 1994 OIW NMSIG 
meeting; and , it was furthermore hypothesized that members 
of the Distributed Systems Management Working Group would be 
seriously interested in the topics and in contributing to OIW 
review efforts on these documents. Accordingly, a liaison 
(NMSIG-94/339) was created conveying (a) OIW's observation 
that JIDM specifications will fill a critical gap and support 
the interworking of object-oriented technology (CORBA) and 
management technologies (OSI, IPS), (b) comments regarding 
transaction concurrency, (c) the OIW SNMSIG's plan to seek an 
expansion of the OIW constituency supporting OIW review of 
the JIDM specifications, and (d) the SNMSIG's desire to 
continue OIW/JIDM collaboration in this area.

- M. Chernick reported little support was generated from the 
community relative to his June 1994 electronic call for 
participation in efforts to translate the IETF Frame Relay 
MIB (RFC 1604) and the IETF AToM SONET MIB (RFC 1595) into 
GDMO equivalents. One potential contributor had reported 
difficulties in translating the IETF Frame Relay MIB into the 
proper SNMP version for input into an IIMC MIB-to-GDMO 
converter. Community problems regarding multiple, parallel, 
autonomously-defined definitions for SONET/SDH were 
introduced (NMSIG-94/300). Accordingly, L. LaBarre 
volunteered to provide a translation of the RFC 1595 into 
GDMO and an associated ASN.1 module so that it could become 
possible to begin identifying the magnitude of the 
discrepancies between the ITU-T G.774 SDH MIB and the 
purportedly similar IETF SONET MIB (RFC 1595).

- There was some discussion and interest expressed about 
management sub-agent technology. It was felt that at least a 
more detailed description of the problem to be addressed by 
such technology was needed before determining if there should 
be any particular role that the OIW SNMSIG should play 
relative to the architecting, modeling, standardization, 
and/or profiling of such technology.

                  Performance Management


- M.Chernick introduced the most current WD pDISPs (NMSIG-
94/269, /285, /296, 363, /364) and RW comments on the 
Performance Management profiles. It was reported that very 
little interest in supporting the completion of these 
documents had come forward from an electronic call for 
participation. Furthermore, since NMSIG-9/363-364 had just 
recently been received out of the Sept AOW NMSIG meeting, it 
was felt that i would not be possible to conduct an adequate 
review during the time allocated to this subject at the Sept 
1994 OIW NMSIG. Subsequent to the Sept 1994 OIW, a liaison 
(NMSIG-94/367) was generated conveying the OIW SNMSIG's 
concurrence on endorsing the performance management profiles 
as being harmonized as pDISPs ready for ISO SGFS submission.

- There was interest expressed from the Lower Layers Ensemble 
effort in having RW resources progressing an AOM251x General 
Performance Management Profile. Such a request was 
incorporated into liaison NMSIG-94/67.

- OIW NMSIG agenda work items associated with the Performance 
Management Working Group (PMG) were postponed until the 
December 1994 OIW. At that time it is expected that the PMWG 
specfications will be stabilized in X/Open; and, that OIW 
SNMSIG efforts can commence to develop a workplan/schedule 
and to begin to outline corresponding OIW working agreements.

            Lower Layer MO Profiles and Ensembles

- A review of all RW inputs pertinent to this area was 
conducted by Kedem Kaminsky and several liaisons were created 
a a result of the discussions.

- Substantial and mixed discussions took place regarding the 
taonomy for lower layer MO profiles. From the lower layer 
experts view point, it was felt that updating each T and R 
ISP with an optional management capability was acceptable, 
and that use of FOM profiles for lower layer MOs was not 
acceptable. (Ensembles would then provide the mechanism for 
selecting among the optional ISP management capabilities.) 
Others argued that such an approach would be time-consuming 
and prevent early, wide-spread availability of any Lower 
Layer MO profiles. There was no input from Upper Layer 
experts regarding appropriate taxonomy and profiling for 
upper layer MOs. Similarly, there was no discussion regarding 
profiling of MOs for non-OSI or hybrid (e.g., management 
proxy) resources/services. Accordingly, a liaison (NMSIG-
94/357) was created indicating tha at least for the 
situation for lower layer MO taxonomy and MO profiling, the 
desirable approach is to update each T and R ISP. This 
liaison also conveys OIW's concurrence that ensembles should 
be identified under an AOM3x taxonomy branch.

- AOW NMSIG comments (AOW NM N866) were reviewed and a 
liaison (NMSIG-94/355) was created acknowledging OIW 
agreement with many points and requesting AOW clarifications 
on a few points. Similarly, other AOW NMSIG comments (AOW NM 
N905R) were reviewed and a liaison (NMSIG-94/356) was created 
acknowleding agreement with some points, requesting 
clarification of one point, and indicating the plan on how 
lower layer ensembles could address manager role conformance 
requirements.

- EWOS EGNM comments (EGNM/94/211) were reviewed and a 
liaison (NMSIG-94/337) was created acknowleding OIW agreement 
with most points and a disagreement regarding how to address 
MOCS static vs dynamic conditins.

- A liaison was created (NMSIG-94/354) (a) indicating that 
revision 8 of the Connectionles Network Systems Management 
Ensemble (CLNSME) is now available for RW review, (b) 
summarizing changes between revisions 7 and 8, (c) proposing 
a progression schedule that maintained consistency of RW 
reviews upon the same revision of CLNSME, and (d) proposing 
that pDISP harmonization be targeted for completion during 
early 1995.

- A liaison (NMSIG-94/358) is to be created alerting the RWs 
to the availability for comment/review of lower layer MO 
profiles on the OIW informatin server.

                 Management Guidelines

- S.Riegner introduced the Ensemble Guidelines topic 
indicating that there was substantial confusion surrounding 
the status of the document and AOW and OIW comments against 
it. It was not clear as to which version (EWOS EGNM/94/203 or 
some future, not yet seen version) of the Guidelines is to be 
reviewed and approved. Furthermore, it was observed that 
previous OIW comments that had been agreed by EWOS 
(EGNM/94/205) did not appear to be in EGNM/94/203. In light 
that some of the OIW comments were non-trivial, it was felt 
that an OIW endorsement culd not be given at the Sept 1994 
OIW, and that it would be best to seek clarification from the 
document editor as to (a) what is the status of the comment 
resolutions, and (b) which version of the document is to be 
endorsed as harmonized. While it was hoped that such 
clarification could be obtained and an OIW NMSIG electronic 
assessment/approval of the document could be obtained in time 
for the EWOS EGNM meeting and/or the RWS-CC, unfortunately, 
this was not able to be accomplished within the time 
available.

- Regarding the Guidelines for Managed Object Profiling, no 
further comments were made. With the OIW endorsement having 
been made at the June 1994 OIW, the work on this Guideline 
was considered complete and was awaiting final approval by 
the October 1994 RWS-CC.

- Regarding the Guidelines for MO Taxonomy (NMSIG-94/302 [AOW 
NM N784]), a liaison was created (NMSIG-94/359) conveying (a) 
the major comment (discussed in detail in liaison 
NMSIG-94/357) regarding the use of FOM ISPs for MO profiles, 
and (b) numerous editorial and minor concerns that were 
brought to the attention of the OIW NMSIG.

              Distributed Systems Management (DSM)

- The DSMWG met independently, as well as jointly with the 
NMSIG. The DSMWG secretary's report is provided in NMSIG-
94/369. There were presentations covering a variety of topics 
including OSF, DSM, Integrated Enterprise Management, 
NMF/SPIRIT, X/OPEN 

- Other topics considered included the development of a 
document that collates, aggregates, filters, and synthesizes 
distributed systems management requirements from several 
extant requirements documents from larger users (e.g., DoD) 
and/or user groups (e.g., POSIX, OMNIPoint). Subsequent to 
the Sept 1994 OIW, an announcement was made on the DSM email 
exploder that the first draft was available by FTP from the 
NIST infoserver nemo.ncsl.nist.gov.

- Subsequent to the Sept OIW, it was announced that the nmsig 
email exploder was deleted as a subscriber to the DSM email 
exploder. Accordingly, individuals from the NMSIG email 
exploder who wish to join the DSM email exploder will need to 
send a request to <majordomo@nemo.ncsl.nist.gov> and in the 
message put: subscribe dsm <your email address>


                      MISCELLANEOUS

- Because of the sustained lack of an editor or any 
volnteers with interests in the Service Request Management 
Ensemble, the draft of this ensemble was deleted from Part 
18, Annex D.4, of the OIW Working Agreements.
