This paper describes the design and implementation of an SNMP-based management system for the CORBA-based electronic brokerage application that has been implemented within the scope of the ABS (Architecture for Information Brokerage Service) ACTS Project. The management system is based on the use of an SNMP-CORBA gateway that uses the JIDM (joint inter-domain management) specification translation algorithms and incorporates ideas from the services and facilities contained in the SNMP part of the JIDM interaction translation documents. The paper also focuses on the way the management information has been instrumented within the CORBA application trying to make it transparent with respect to the developers of the functional aspects of the managed application.
