The XML data file module 13g defines and stores a standardized XML format command and a data file corresponding to the command.

The XML data format definition module 13h performs a function of defining the format of the data file stored in the XML data file module 13g.

In other words, it defines and stores the format of the information contained in the standardized XML data file.

The XML command tree module 13i reads the commands defined by the XML data file module 13g to form a tree, expresses them in the command tree window 11a, and performs a function of selecting a command from an administrator.

The command format selection module 13j selects whether a command format to be used is an XML format command or a CDD command using a state between systems or any other information.

The XML data parsing module 13k reads the data file of the command selected by the XML command tree module 13i from the manager, that is, the data file of the command that the manager wants to transfer to the switching system 20, and sends it to the library. Function to form.

The XML-CDD data conversion module 13l uses the XML data format information stored in the XML data format module 13h to create CDD data instructions that have the same function as the XML format instructions selected by the administrator. Performs the function of generating it.

At this time, data conversion is to identify the format information of the XML format command selected by the administrator and the parameters of the data file of the command, and to generate data in the CDD format to perform the same function.

The CDD data file module 13a defines a data file of a CDD instruction and stores the data file.

The CDD data parsing module 13c reads the data file of the selected instruction, that is, the parameter, into a library, and also receives the converted instructions from the XML-CDD data conversion module 13l to receive the received instructions. Performs a function to form a data file corresponding to a library.

When the parameter display module 13d forms a library corresponding to an instruction in the CDD data parsing module 13c, the parameter display module 13d performs a function of expressing the formed library in the parameter window 11b.

At this time, the parameter display module 13d expresses the parameter of the command to be transmitted to the parameter window 11b and receives the command when the administrator transmits a confirmation signal through the confirmation button in the parameter window 11b. The command module is sent to the completion module 13e.

When the command completion module 13e receives the parameter of the command from the parameter display module 13d, the command completion module 13e receives the parameter and completes the command that can be transmitted to the switching system 20 which is the management target system.

In this case, the command completion is to include information about the system management command that the administrator wants to transmit to the management target system, and to make the data information form to communicate between the systems.

The command check module 13m performs a function of checking whether a command completed in the command completion module 13e fits the selected command format or whether there is no error in the command.

In other words, it checks the syntax of the completed instruction.

The command transfer module 13f performs a function of transmitting the command completed in the command completion module 13e to the management target system.

6 is a flowchart illustrating a flow of a method for processing a system management command supporting an X-M L data file according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The XML format command and the data file of the command are stored in the XML data file module 13g, and the CDD format command and the data file of the command are set and stored in the CDD data file module 13a (S 10).

The XML data format module 13h defines and stores the format of the instructions stored in the XML data file module 13g.

This command format information is used to generate CDD data that performs the same function as data corresponding to an administrator-selected XML format command.

The XML command tree module 13i reads the commands stored in the XML data file module 13g to form a tree, and expresses the commands in the command tree window 11a of the command processing window 11 (S 11).

The system manager selects a command to be transmitted among the commands expressed in a tree format in the command tree window 11a.

The XML command tree module 13i receives a command to be transmitted from the manager (S 12).

The command format selection module 13j selects whether the XML command tree module 13i processes the command selected from the administrator in the XML format or the CDD format (S 13).

In this case, the command format selection module 13j determines whether the command format used by the basic management system is a CDD format or an XML format, and adaptively determines the command format.

First, when the instruction format selection module 13j selects the CDD format, the CDD data generation module 13c reads the data file stored in the CDD data file module 13a (S 14).

On the other hand, when the instruction format selection module 13j selects the XML format, the XML data parsing module 13k reads the data file of the selected instruction stored in the XML data file module 13g (S 15).

The XML data parsing module 13k parses the data file read by the XML data file module 13g (S16).

In other words, the XML data parsing module 13k forms the read data file into a library.

The XML-CDD data conversion module 13l uses the format information defined in the XML data format module 13h to convert the data of the XML format command selected by the administrator into data requiring the corresponding CDD command. (S 17).

In this case, the reason for converting the XML format data into the CDD format is that the administrator is using the CDD format, so that the administrator can recognize the selected XML format command in the CDD format so that the administrator can recognize it more conveniently. will be.

The CDD data parsing module 13c receives and parses data generated by the XML-CDD data conversion module 13l (S 18).

The parameter display module 13d expresses that the CDD data parsing module 13c parses the data file, that is, the data file is formed into a library in the parameter window 11b (S 19).

In addition, the administrator displays the information about the command to be transmitted to the parameter display module 13d command input window 11c so that the administrator can recognize it and receives a confirmation signal from the manager.

After the command completion module 13e expresses a command to be transmitted from the administrator to the command input window 11c, when a confirmation signal is received, the command completion module 13e uses the library formed by the CDD data parsing module 13c to send the command to the managed system. Complete (S20).

The command check module 13m checks whether the command completed by the command completion module 13e is a command that can be transmitted to the management system, and also determines whether the command format is correct (S21).

When the command checking module 13f determines that the completed command is correct in the command checking module 13m, the command transmitting module 13f transmits the command to the switching system 20 which is a management target system (S22).

Although the present invention has been described in detail only with respect to the described embodiments, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and changes are possible within the technical spirit of the present invention, and such modifications and modifications belong to the appended claims.

As described above, according to the present invention, instead of using the commands defined in the conventional CDD format, by using the commands defined in the standard structured character format, even if the network is composed of systems produced by various manufacturers, It is possible to achieve the effect of managing these systems in the basic management system without mutual consultation.

In addition, when managing a system using a command defined in the conventional command data description format, by enabling the use of the command format selectively, it is possible to obtain an effect that a conventional user can use without further modification.
