Telecommunication

TMN provides an organised architecture for the interconnection between various types of Operating Systems (OSs) and/or telecommunication equipment for the exchange of management information using an agreed architecture with standardised interfaces including messages and protocols.

TMN provides management functions for telecommunication networks and services and offers communications between itself and the networks and services.

The aim of TMN is to provide a framework for telecommunication management. By introducing the concept of generic network models for management, to perform general management of diverse equipment using generic information models and standard interfaces.

TMN can vary in complexity from a very simple connection to a complex network interconnecting. It provides management functions and offers communication both between an OSs themselves, and between OSs and the different parts of the telecommunication network.
A telecommunication network contain many types of telecommunication equipmentand associated support equipment.

TMN is a separate network that interfaces a telecommunication network to control its operation. It may be use parts of the telecommunications network to provide its communication. The following diagram show the relationship between TMN and telecommunication network.
