Benefits of technology

[0010] The present invention makes it possible to arrange local management operations in a management system. Thus the managed device may control the management of the second node. For instance, the managed device may only be allowed to modify the second node, but the second node may be modified on the basis of a triggering management command from a managing device. The second node may be managed indirectly and the second node may reside anywhere in the management structure, such as a management tree. Another advantage is that commands may be centralized to the first node. This enables the managing device to instantly define what kind of command-based management is possible.

Problems solved by technology

Devices require several different settings, such as settings related to Internet access points, and setting them manually by the user is arduous and difficult.

Embodiment Construction

[0019] One embodiment of the invention will be described in the following in a system supporting OMA device management; it should, however, be noted that the invention can be applied to any device management system, in which device management objects can also be organized in structures other than tree structure.

[0020]FIG. 2 illustrates a networked system. A network server or a PC typically serves as the server S. A mobile station, PC, laptop computer, or PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) device typically serves as the terminal TE. In the following embodiments, it is assumed that for device management, the terminal TE serves as the device management client and the server S as the device management server. The server S can manage several clients TE.

[0021]FIG. 2 shows two examples, in the first of which clients TE and management servers S are connected to a local area network LAN. A client TE connected to the network LAN comprises a functionality, such as a network card and software c...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for arranging local operations in a management system, the method comprising: defining a management command addressed to a first node in a management structure of the managed device such that it comprises a command for performing a local operation for a second node of the management structure in the managed device, transmitting the management command to the managed device, defining at least one required local operation on the basis of the received management command, and initiating the defined local operation.

Description

RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] This application claims the benefit of the U.S. Provisional Application No. 60 / 585,175, filed Jul. 1, 2004, the content of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0002] The invention relates to arranging management operations in a management system. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0003] As different data processing devices, such as mobile stations, become more complex, the significance of device management becomes more pronounced. Devices require several different settings, such as settings related to Internet access points, and setting them manually by the user is arduous and difficult. To solve this problem, for instance, device management solutions have been developed so that the administrator of a company's information system or a teleoperator can set an appropriate configuration for a device Device management generally refers to actions by which a person typically not using a device can change the configuration of the ...
