Abstract:
Due to the expansion of the data transmission capabilities, it is utilizedto make many services easier, efficient, and more controlled. The publicservices are more effective if they have online data transmission to getfaster request servicing, maintenance, and control.This project is concerned with designing and implementing adedicated network management system prototype. Also, it concerned withbuilding the necessary application software tools which may needed formanaging public services (electricity, water, medical help alarm, policemonitoring, and fire monitoring). It toke into consideration that thedistributed system must be reliable, real time, secure, and scalable. Theproject tried to achieve these considerations on two levels, the first is bysuggesting system layout and hardware that may provide an acceptablesolution, and the second is by the applications and protocols designed.This thesis shows the layout of the system that composed of fourmajor parts : customer’s agent, service provider, zone center, and primarycenter. The geographic area covered by the system was divided intoregions called zones; each zone contains customers and may containservice providers. Each zone is controlled by network management stationcalled zone center that monitor and receive alarms from the agents andsend it to the appropriate nearest (estimated) available service provider. Allthe zone centers are controlled by one primary network managementstation called primary center. The primary center monitors and connects allzone centers together, and plays as a backup station in case of shuttingdown one of the zone centers.The project suggests the connection media to be used (for example,using Power Line Communication (PLC) to connect the customers withiiizone center, because the power line infrastructure is already exist), usingcluster of computers in each center, and distributed backup places toachieve maximal possible reliability with good performance. The designedsystem uses the Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) as the network protocolto support addressing huge number of customers, quality of service,support the anycast message type (which decrease the difficulty of buildingclusters), and the facility of leaving the unused options to increaseperformance. Also, the Simple Network Management Protocol version 2(SNMPv2) was utilized because it is simple in development and takes lowbandwidth, and it was adopted to achieve more security.In this project a distributed database was established, and the two problems : data synchronization and the way of data storage to achieve an acceptable performance within the multi - threaded system were handled.The project prototype was established by using Microsoft Visual Basic .NET 2003 which depends on the .NET framework that supports the multithreadedsystem with good utilization.
