Scope
The international community has decided to make this standard available only in
the English language version. It has been adopted as a National Standard of
Canada on this basis. This National Standard of Canada is equivalent to International Standard
ISO/IEC 10164-4:1992. NOTE: Amendment 1, 1997 to this Standard was reaffirmed September 27, 2006. 1 Scope This Recommendation | International Standard defines a Systems Management
Function that may be used by an application process in a centralized or
decentralized management environment to interact for the purpose of systems
management, as defined by CCITT Rec. X.700 | ISO/IEC 7498-4. This
Recommendation | International Standard defines a function which consists of
generic definitions, services and functional units. This function is
positioned in the application layer of the OSI reference model (CCITT Rec.
X.200 | ISO 7498) and is defined according to the model provided by ISO/IEc
9545. The role of systems management functions is described by CCITT Rec.
X.701 | ISO/IEC 10040. The alarm notifications defined by this function
provides information that a manager may need to act upon pertaining to a
system's operational condition and quality of service. This Recommendation | International Standard - establishes user requirements for the alarm reporting function; - establishes a model that relates the service and generic definitions
provided by this function to user requirements; - defines the service provided by the function; - defines generic notification types and parameters documented in
accordance with CCITT Rec. X.722 | ISO/IEC 10165-4; - specifies the protocol that is necessary in order to provide the
service; - specifies the abstract syntax necessary to identify and negotiate the
functional unit in protocol; - defines the relationship between this service and SMI notifications; - specifies compliance requirements placed on other standards that make
use of these generic definitions; - defines relationships with other systems management functions; - specifies conformance requirements. This Recommendation | International Standard does not - define the nature of any implementation intended to provide the Alarm
Reporting function; - specify the manner in which management is accomplished by the use of
the Alarm Reporting function; - define the nature of any interactions which result in the user of the
Alarm Reporting function; - specify the services necessary for the establishment, normal and
abnormal release of a management association; - preclude the definition of further notification types; - define managed objects.
