Abstract

See full text

A replicated naming service is created and maintained to provide configuration and topology information for a network, such as an undersea cable system, to a network management system (NMS). Designated hosts are chosen in each element management system (EMS) subnetwork (or cable station) to run a replicated naming server and a replication mechanism is set up in all of the hosts. The replicated naming servers are identified throughout the network and each host publishes configuration information to each of the replicated naming servers. Thus, each replicated naming server provides configuration and topology information for substantially an entire network. In one embodiment, the naming service is implemented using the Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) and the configuration information is published periodically using a naming service builder application.
