Abstract

A Software Fault Management (SFM) system (10) for managing software faults in a managed mobile telecommunications network. The SFM system (10) includes an Intelligent Management Information Base (I-MIB) (36) comprising a Management Information Base (MIB) (37) and a Knowledge Base (KB) (38) having a functional model (39) of the managed network and a trouble report/known faults (TR/KF) case base (41). The SFM system also includes an intelligent multi-agent portion having a plurality of agents (23-35) which process the software faults utilizing the functional model (39) from the I-MIB (36), case-based information, and other management information. The I-MIB and the intelligent multi-agent portion are compliant with Telecommunications Management Network (TMN) principles and framework. Fault management is both proactive and reactive. The SFM system (10) is made independent of technology-specific implementations by representing the underlying switch design knowledge in a modular and changeable form which is then interpreted by the intelligent multi-agent portion. A clear separation is maintained between the generic procedural inference mechanisms and agents, and the specific and explicit models of the different network elements of a mobile telecommunications network.
