System for prechecking corrective actions on parameterable elements causing problems in a communicating network

摘要

A system is dedicated to checking corrective actions intended for parameterable elements of a radio communication network, comprising an information base for storing primary data representing values of managed parameters of the elements and of a topology of the network, a rules base for storing data representing rules for checking appropriate parameter setting of the elements, processing means for making, in the event of reception of a designation of at least one parameterable element of the network causing a problem in the network and data representing at least one corrective action to be applied to the designated element, a local copy of a portion of the primary data stored in the information base and representing the designated element, elements adjacent thereto and the topology associated with the designated and adjacent elements, and checking means for applying at least certain of the rules to the local copy taking account of each designated corrective action in such a manner as to determine the influence of each designated corrective action on the designated and adjacent elements and to deliver a message including data representing the influence.
