Implementation of a Configuration Management System for a Local Area Network

摘要

A major concern of system managers in Local Area Network (LAN) environments is tokeep track of each of the component and location of network nodes as well as the maintenance history of LAN nodes and accessories. The complexity of the technology and the variety of products used interchangeably make this task particularly hard. This thesis designs and implements a database application to facilitate this effort. It allows the LAN maintenance staff to manage the assets more efficiently and effectively. This system can also be adapted and applied to LAN systems throughout the DoD as required.
