Telecommunication management; Configuration Management (CM); Basic CM Integration Reference Point (IRP); Information Service (IS)
The present document defines a component of an Integration Reference Point (IRP) through which an 'IRPAgent' (typically an Element Manager or Network Element) can communicate basic Configuration Management related information to one or several 'IRPManagers' (typically Network Managers).
The function of this Basic CM IRP Information Service is to define an interface for the retrieval and modification of Configuration Management Information.
This Basic CM IRP IS is aligned with ITU-T M.3700 [15] in that ITU-T M.3700 is a subset of the Basic CM IRP IS in terms of the definitions of operations for the retrieval and modification of Configuration Management Information.
