Abstract

This paper presents our methodological approach for the realization of our S.A.R.I. (a French acronym standing for “Simulateur d'Administration de Réseaux Interconnectés”). Object-Oriented High-Speed Multi-Network Simulator/Demonstrator composed of interconnected heterogeneous high-speed subnetworks [Asynchronous Transfer Mode, (ATM); Distributed Queue Dual Bus, (DQDB); and Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI)]. The goal of the S.A.R.I. Simulator is to perform the functional behavior of the high-speed protocols and their interconnections. The objective of the S.A.R.I. Demonstrator is to show the feasibility of the management of the S.A.R.I. Simulator. The concepts behind the, demonstrator are a logical layered management architecture to partition the multi-network managment activity, and an abstract network management information model that represents the network resources by data in a unified and integrated way.
