target audience could include network software engineers
from within Digital, or software support engineers from
the Customer Services and Sales Support organization.
Description: In order to interface with the DECmcc network management
tool, a network component such as a bridge or router,
requires an access module, a software module that allows
the component to talk to the DECmcc executive software.
Once a component accesses the DECmcc executive, it can
be managed using DECmcc. This course should enable students
to:
o Design entities that conform to the EMA Entity Model
o Use the DECmcc Developer's Toolkit to develop a sample
access module
Prerquisites: The following prerequisite skills and knowledge are
necessary for this course:
o Introductory-level knowledge of the Enterprise Management
Architecture (EMA)
o Introductory-level knowledge of network configuration and
management
o Working knowledge of software engineering concepts related
to DECmcc access module development, including:
- Distributed processing
- Layered applications
- Object-oriented programming
- Synchronous and asynchronous processing
- Database management
- Memory management
o Working knowledge of the C programming language
To ensure these prerequisite skills, the student should have at
least one year of professional programming experience, including
at least six months experience developing network applications
and six months experience writing C code
In addition, the following courses would be helpful:
o EMA Overview
o Network Management Using DECmcc
Goals: The goal of this course is to introduce software engineers,
from the network and software support environments, to the
concepts, and software development tools needed to develop
DECmcc access modules.
Non-Goals: This course will not cover these topics or tasks:
o How to perform network management tasks
o In-depth coverage of the Enterprise Management Architecture
(EMA)
o How to write Presentation Modules or Functional Modules
for DECmcc
o How to manage a software development project
