    Private networks are becoming globalized and more complicated through LAN-WAN interconnection. While WANs are managed by CMIP, LANs are managed by SNMP. To achieve end-to-end management, the integration of CMIP-based and SNMP-based management is important. We have developed an MI (Management Integration) platform for CMIP-based and SNMP-based management. It provides OSI SMF (Systems Management Function)-based unified basic management services to upper level applications regardless of the differences between CMIP-based and SNMP-based management. It achieves this with two modules: a management information transfer integration module that mainly covers protocol and data format differences between them, and a basic management module that covers functional differences. The translation of management information in the former module can be changed flexibly because the translation is based on an external script file. The latter module has additional SMF-like functions for the management of SNMP agents in addition to SMF manager role functions, etc. Prototype evaluation has demonstrated the feasibility of the MI platform.
