This Recommendation | International Standard defines the Management knowledge management function. The Management knowledge management function is a Systems Management function which may be used by an application process in a centralized or decentralized management environment to interact for the purpose of systems management, as defined by the OSI Management framework, CCITT Rec. X.700 and ISO/IEC 7498-4. This Recommendation | International Standard defines a function which consists of generic definitions and services. This function is positioned in the application layer of the OSI reference model, ITU-T Rec. X.200 | ISO/IEC 7498-1, and is defined according to the model provided by ITU-T Rec. X.207 | ISO/IEC 9545. The role of systems management functions is described by CCITT Rec. X.701 | ISO/IEC 10040.

This Recommendation | International Standard:

• identifies the set of requirements satisfied by the function;
• provides a model for the behaviour of management knowledge objects;
• specifies the management requirements of the function and how these are realized by specification of managed objects and their behaviour or by specification of Directory objects;
• specifies the mapping of these services onto the CMIS services;
• specifies the abstract syntax of the parameters of the MAPDUs that will be used to refer to managed objects and their characteristics.

This Recommendation | International Standard does not:

• define the nature of any implementation intended to provide the Management knowledge management function;
• specify the manner in which management is to be accomplished by the user of the Management knowledge management function;
• define the nature of any interactions which result in the use of the Management knowledge management function;
• specify the services necessary for the establishment, normal and abnormal release of a management association;
• define the interactions which result by the simultaneous use of several management functions;
• define connection establishment or authorization requirements for the use of these functions or for any associated activity;
• preclude the definition of further management knowledge object classes.
