Abstract

Network management requires a lot of manual work. Due to ongoing growth of the Internet, more self-management is needed in order to deal with the growing complexity. Policy-based management is an approach to simplify management by the use of rules. Policy refinement, i.e. breaking down high-level policies to technical configurations is still a task that needs manual work. We propose an architecture that uses Web services and automatic Web services composition as a complementary technique to policy refinement in order to automate policy-based management.
