Active network is a new framework where network nodes not only forward packets, but also perform customized computation on the packet flowing through them. It provides a programmable interface to the user where users dynamically inject services into the intermediate nodes. This paper analyses the structure and mechanism of the active network management system (ANMS), studies the problems in active network management system, such as the structure of the node, transmitting mechanism and algorithm of the message, the time complication of all kinds of algorithms, etc
