The objective of this project is to provide value in terms of educating the members on management protocols, tools, methodology, best practices, and issues involved in managing today's complex networks.  The project will also provide information, assistance, and guidance in performing network management functions.

The project has several goals, including:

• Defining requirements for existing and future networking management products and applications from IBM and other vendors.
• Educating SHARE membership on multi-vendor management technology, services, products, implementation, and usage.
• Maintaining dialog between IBM, its business partners and other vendors.
• Providing a forum for discussion of tools, methodology, and architectures related to the network management arena.

The Network Management project is open to all - new members are encouraged to actively participate by volunteering to share their experiences with others. Feel free to email your questions or comments about the project to the Project Manager, Dean Butler.
