Abstract
A method and system for monitoring and managing a network having at least one network manager resident within a network station and at least one network agent resident within a network device. The method and system accomplish their objects as follows. One or more network parameters of one or more network devices are grouped. In response to the grouping, a group monitor is constructed wherein any changes of the grouped one or more network parameters are reflected by the constructed group monitor. The constructed group monitor can thereafter be monitored for indications of changes in any of the grouped network parameters.
