[comp.protocols.iso] Bibliography wanted for SNMP, CMIP, NetView

brahms@NECAM.tdd.sj.nec.com (George Skillman) (11/13/90)

I'm trying to write a paper comparing three network management
protocols for a class.  However, I'm having trouble finding
materials on the three protocols I wanted to cover:
IBM's NetView, SNMP, and OSI's CMIP.  Does anyone know of any
good papers on these?  Where can they be found?  (Anonymous ftp
perhaps?)  Are there any down-to-earth (easier to understand)
papers or books on these topics?

Thanks in advance for your help.

There was a network management bibliography published in Computer
Communication Review (CCR) about a year I think.  It was done by Adarshpal
Sethi, of the University of Delaware.  I believe that most of the CCR
articles are FTP'able from "sh.relay.net"; you will have to look around.

You might also try "The Simple Book", by Marshall T. Rose.  It emphasize SNMP.

There is a good overview of SNMP and CMIP in IEEE Networks magazine,
July 1990, by Ben-Artzi, Chandna, and Warrier.
