| Abstract | Managing Networks is a challenging and demanding task. It becomes all the more
complicated with large networks. It is then necessary to have management software for all
devices as well as information about the networks. As of today, most network devices have
their individual management modules, so management is decentralized. The future trend is
towards centralizing the network management system. This calls for integrating all the
network devices and maintaining a centralized database containing information about the
network.
This study proposes a new mechanism for managing the networks by using Directory Enabled
Network (DEN) architecture along with Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI). This
mechanism is powerful enough to meet the demands of network management. DEN is a
specification to store information in the form of classes in a Lightweight Directory Access
Protocol (LDAP) Database. Using JNDI, the users can access the information via LDAP
protocol.
This architecture has been implemented as a test phase in the Computer Science department
network - Asian Institute of Technology, Thailand.
