Current network management needs an end-to-end overview of various flows rather than the information that is purely local to the individual devices. The typical manager-centric polling approach, however, is not suitable to understand network-wide behavior of a large-scale Internet. In this paper, we propose a new management information base (MIB) approach called Service Monitoring MIB (SM MIB). The MIB provides a network manager with dynamic end-to-end management information by utilizing special packets. The special packet is an Internet control message protocol (ICMP) application that is sent to a remote network element to monitor Internet services. The SM MIB makes an end-to-end management feasible while it reduces management-related traffic and manager-to- manager interactions. Real examples show that the proposed SM MIB is useful for end-to-end QoS monitoring. We discuss the accuracy of the obtained data as well as the monitoring overhead.
