This International Standard defines an Application Service Element (the Common Management Information Service Element), which may be used by an application process in a centralized or decentralized management environment to exchange information and commands for the purpose of systems management, as defined by the OSI Management Framework in ISO/IEC 7498-4. This International Standard is positioned in the application layer of ISO 7498 and is defined according to the model provided by ISO/IEC 9545.

This International Standard defines

- a set of service primitives that constitute the application service e lement; - the parameters that are passed in each service primitive; - any necessary information for the semantic description of each service primitive.

This International Standard does not define

- the nature of any implementation intended to provide the d efined service; - the semantics associated with the information or commands that are exchanged by means of the service; - the manner in which management is accomplished by the user of the service; - the nature of any interactions which result in the use of the service.

No requirement is made for conformance to this International Standard. See more
