Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0242882A2] An apparatus for processing simple network management protocol object identifiers in a network management file. The objects are classified as to scalar or tabular values and further classified according to the number of digits in each object identifier and the number of unlike values within the digits. Packet data units are then created incorporating similar object types. Each packet data unit is then individually processed. By first classifying and then processing the SNMP objects, the impact of corrupted or erred objects on the network management process is minimized.

[origin: WO0242882A2] An apparatus for processing simple network management protocol (SNMP) object identifiers (OID's) in a network management file. The objects are classified as to scalar or tabular values and further classified according to the number of digits in each object identifier and the number of unlike values within the digits. Packet data units are then created incorporating similar object types. Each packet data unit is then individually processed. By first classifying (222) and then processing (224) the SNMP objects, the impact of corrupted or erred objects on the network management process is minimized.
