ward solving industry prob- lems in the domain of distributed enterprises such as telecommunications and data communications systems. This goal has to be achieved without strict requirements of changing the architecture of such well-known management technologies as SNMP, CORBA and TMN, and integrating them at upper presentation level of systems architecture. WBEM tools must be able to perform scaleable, platform-independent, application- independent functions of dynamic distance monitoring of the current state of distributed sub-systems and objects. They should also provide web-based tools for control and management of configurations and parameters of objects and processes. 14.2.2 National-Level Telecom Network Management The telecommunications system of Moldova is under reconstruction, now having a mixed infrastructure of old communication hardware and new equipment. The overall management of the national telecommunications system is generally manual and needs to be unified and automated under the requirements of the ITU-T stand- ards concerning Telecommunications Management Networks and Systems (TMS). The main reason for a national-level TMS is the necessity for increasing the qual- ity of telecom services through automation of basic control and administration functions, such as monitoring, provisioning, troubleshooting, planning and opti- mization. Another objective is to reduce telecommunications network operation and maintenance costs. A project of Mold-TMS powered by WBEM was proposed based on TMN where the subsystems under management were Fault, Configuration, Accounting, Performance and Security (FCAPS). In this model, every NE of the network under management is associated with an agent which is capable of measuring the current state of the parameters from some specified management area, and to generate: statistical information about accumulated monitored values alerts concerning exceptional events of hardware and software faults, performance degradation, security problems and accounting malfunctions.
