Developing an active mode of network management system with intelligent multi-agent techniques

摘要

In this paper, the distributed and intelligent agent software to support network equipments based on the ontology was proposed, in which an integrated information fetching system for network flow information was developed. The system operated the information fetching through the cooperation and coordinate of the intelligent agent software, in addition, the system also provided warnings after analysis so as to monitor and predict some possible error portents generated among controlled objects in the network, and such operating mode, so to speak, an active mode of network management system with intelligent multi-agent techniques. This technique derived from the ontology combining with related free software-Cacti which stored the operating information of network management perfectly into the backend database; furthermore, integrated intelligent agent techniques to provide backend monitoring system with further analysis so as to present related quantification figures of dynamic information of graphic network monitoring system. The experimental outcomes of the system prototype proved that the techniques implemented in this paper could indeed reduce the recovery time for network troubleshooting when real-time browsing, analyzing, estimating, handling, and engaging to behavior analysis of using network.
