>Dave Stephens What do you mean when you say “CORBA compliant” SNMP manager? If you mean that the SNMP manager should provide a CORBA programming interface you will find some products when you search the internet for the term “JIDM” (Joint Inter Domain Management). Werner Poeppel 1.13.05.02 I worked on such a project. SNMP and TL1 were embedded peers running on top of Corba. Esentially, the implementation for the SNMP functions made Corba service calls to get the data they needed to satisfy the SNMP request. The Corba layer abstracts the device and, thus, the SNMP/TL1/etc developers worked at a high-level. This made it fast to support new MIBs (as long as the Corba IDL was there), but at a slight/moderate cost to performance. One challenge is the style of IDL, i.e. course- or fine-grained object defs. Course grained object defs makes it easy/efficient for such things as GUIs to operate over Corba but meant SNMP had to pull a lot more data than it typically needed to satisfy a SNMP requ
