Abstract
A method and system for network management and service provisioning for broadband wireless networks. The method and system employ a network management system (NMS) to manage nodes corresponding to base stations (BS) and subscriber stations (SS). A service flow database is used to store data relating to pre-provisioned dynamic service flows for subscribers having service agreements with a service provider for the broadband wireless network. Management Information Bases (MIBs) are hosted by the various BSs in the network, along with the SSs. The MIBs contain tabulated data that is used to define and provision dynamic service flows. The MIBs are structured to enable management of the MIBs via Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) messaging and SNMP agents operating on the SNMP managed nodes for the BSs and SSs. The provisioning technique associates sets of Quality of Service (Qos) parameters with corresponding service classes, enabling a set of QoS parameters for a given dynamic service flow to be identified by the corresponding service class.
