I am currently answering an RFI for a large customer in the UK. Many
of the questions request information on where we stand vis-a-vis
OSI/NMF.
I have scanned this notefile but have not found any statements of
direction in relation to the following
97. The OSI Network Management Forum have produced a number of
specification (OMNI Point 0). These are the following:
a) Protocol Documents.
b) Application Services.
c) Object Specification Framework.
d) Forum Architectural Glossary.
e) Forum Object Library.
f) Naming and addressing.
Can you provide details on when these are likely to be introduced?
98. Provide information on the extra facilities in OMNI Point 1 and
outline timescales for introduction.
Any help on the above would be appreciated.
My understanding is that in terms of implementing OSI NMF protcols - we
have done this already e.g. BT Concert integration - and are waiting to
productise this work. I presume this work has been done with OMNI
Point 0 in mind.
I also understand that the definition of managed objects by the OSI/NMF
is not complete.
Thanks in advance,
John

You need to address this to one of the following people in TBG. They
are providing the OSI layers on DECmcc.
John Harper TAEC::harper or OSI::harper
Marc Flauw TAEC::flauw
Norm Valentine BONNET::VALENTINE
John is the engineering manager for TBG. Marc Flauw is the development
manager for the project and Norm Valentine is the marketeer. Norm would
be a good starting point.
The TBG people don't follow the notes file closely and rarely actually
address any of the topics in the notes file. You need to send them
mail.

Hi, following are a few information about our current status vis-a-vis OSI/NMF : (by the way I belong to TBG ... and I read the notes file ... sometimes) 1- We have developped, in Merrimack, 2 demos to prove the interoperability with BT's Management System (CONCERT). These demos have been introduced in NETWORKS91 and TELECOM 91. The reference for these developments is OSI/NMF documentation release 1. 2- At the moment the "productization" phase is being revisited. The original plans were to implement release 1 documents where useful (and possibly add new objects where missing). 3- As you know OMNIPOINT1 documentation is not yet frozen...The very soon publication of these documents and the impact on what we will develop in under investigation. Given the current "questions" about the NMFization of DECmcc, I really encourage anyone with information about the interest of customers for it, to make it known urgently !!!
