Abstract
Software, systems, and methods for facilitating the development and implementation of computer network management software containing Java-based instructions is provided. In one aspect, the invention includes a system for implementing Java-based software network management objects configured to implement computer network management functions on a computer network. In one embodiment, the system of the invention includes a computer network management information server. The network management server performs communications using a first computer network management communications protocol. The system further includes a Java development management kit (“JDMK”) methods protocol adapter (“MPA”) that is configured to translate the first computer network management communications protocol into a JDMK communications protocol. A JDMK agent that is configured to communicate with the JDMK MPA using the JDMK communications protocol also is included.
