Editing Joint Inter-Domain Management (section)


'''Joint Inter-Domain Management''' ('''JIDM''') [[task force]], jointly sponsored by [[X/Open]] and the Network Management Forum, has defined a mapping between [[Simple Network Management Protocol|SNMP]], [[Common management interface protocol|CMIP]] and [[CORBA]].<ref>{{cite web|title=A Simple Typology of Distributed Network Management Paradigms|date=1997-07-30|author=Jean-Philippe Martin-Flatin and Simon Znaty|url=http://lcawww.epfl.ch./Publications/Martin-Flatin/Martin-FlatinZ97.pdf|pages=8–9|publisher=Laboratory for computer Communications and Applications, École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne}}</ref><ref name="Soukouti1997">{{cite book |last1=Soukouti |first1=Nader |last2=Hollberg |first2=Ulf |title=Integrated Network Management V: Integrated management in a virtual world Proceedings of the Fifth IFIP/IEEE International Symposium on Integrated Network Management San Diego, California, U.S.A., May 12–16, 1997 |date=1997 |publisher=Springer US |isbn=9780387351803 |pages=153–164 |language=en |chapter=Joint Inter Domain Management: CORBA, CMIP and SNMP|doi=10.1007/978-0-387-35180-3_12 |s2cid=41924439 }}</ref> The JIDM specification was adopted as a standard by [[the Open Group]] in 2000.<ref name="Open2000">{{cite web |title=Inter-Domain Management: Specification & Interaction Translation |url=https://publications.opengroup.org/c802 |website=publications.opengroup.org |publisher=The Open Group}}</ref>

The mapping specification is in two parts: the Specification Translation and the Interactive Translation.<ref name="Open2000" /> The Specification Translation spells out translation of the [[object oriented]] [[object model]]s among the [[network management]] protocols that allow for data transfer across protocols. The Interactive Translation concerns the dynamic translation of objects in use that allows for the construction of [[network management software]] that operates across protocols.<ref name="Soukouti1997" />

The JIDM specification was considered the most significant work to use the CORBA framework in network management mapping.<ref name="Kwon2001">{{cite book |last1=Kwon |first1=Joon-Heup |last2=Park |first2=Jong-Tae |title=Design and Implementation of CORBA–Based Integrated Network Management System |date=2001 |publisher=Springer Berlin Heidelberg |isbn=9783540477341 |page=409 |language=en|doi=10.1007/3-540-47734-9_41 |s2cid=46567224 }}</ref> The JIDM specification led to CORBA's further use in specifications in the telecommunications industry, such as the ITU-T GDMO specifications.<ref name="Pavlou2007">{{cite journal |last1=Pavlou |first1=George |title=On the Evolution of Management Approaches, Frameworks and Protocols: A Historical Perspective |journal=Journal of Network and Systems Management |date=13 October 2007 |volume=15 |issue=4 |pages=4441–442 |doi=10.1007/s10922-007-9082-9 |s2cid=17473419 |url=https://www.ee.ucl.ac.uk/~gpavlou/Publications/Journal-papers/Pavlou-07a.pdf |accessdate=24 October 2019}}</ref> But the object framework led to performance problems,<ref name="Pavlou2007" /><ref name="Ranc2000">{{cite book |last1=Ranc |first1=D. |last2=Griffin |first2=D. |last3=Pavlou |first3=G. |last4=Horra |first4=J.

This led to network management data mapping approaches where sets of attributes and lists of connections were transferred instead of individual objects.
