摘　　要：Ｉｎｔｅｒｎｅｔ／Ｉｎｔｒａｎｅｔ的迅速发展，促使网络日趋复杂，规模不断扩大，应用服务数量剧增，网络管理的重要性日益提高．传统上作为事实工业标准的ＳＮＭＰ采取集中管理模式和功能固定的代理（ａｇｅｎｔ）机械地收集大量原始数据，逐渐无法适应网络的发展现状，大量网管信息加重了网络负载，对管理对象的请求响应缓慢．文中提出采用移动代理（ｍｏｂｉｌｅａｇｅｎｔ）的网管框架，将代理支撑环境驻留在设备上，替代功能固定的代理，网管中心根据实际网络状态选择适当功能的代理程序发送到设备，在代理运行环境中生成程序实例（ｉｎｓｔａｎｃｅ），完成预期功能，移动代理不仅收集而且能够处理数据，从而加快响应速度，减轻网管中心负载．文中阐述了移动代理的结构，控制和安全问题，以及用于网络管理的系统框架和原型的实现．With the rapid development of Internet/Intranet, network is becoming larger and more complex. Traditional SNMP based centric network management can no longer keep up with these trends. In the paper here, a new framework is put forward, which takes advantage of the mobile agent to manage network more quickly and more flexibly. In the new framework, an agent execution environment resides on the network device, substituting the old SNMP's function static agent. Network management center selects proper agent program according to network state and distributes it to network device where instance is generated to fulfill the expected task. Mobile agent not only can collect data, but also can process these data to improve the response and relieve NMS's burden. The mobile agent structure and its control strategy are presented. A management framework with its prototype, which can integrate with SNMP, is also described.
