1. A network system comprising:

  • a name resolution server for identifying another agent device which transmits a management function execution request when it is needed that an enhanced operational object transmits said management function execution request to said another agent device;

    a program execution information storage section for storing an enhanced operational object which realizes management functions in a network management to provide said management functions to a program, a primitive operational object which provides a function of accessing a managed object, to said enhanced operational object, a managed object access object having a function of directly accessing one management function, and a standard enhanced operational object of providing a management function by using a function possessed by said managed object access object;

    a program execution section having means of executing a program transmitted from a manager, means of linking an enhanced operational object required by said program during a program execution to said program, and means of transmitting an execution result of said program to said manager;

    a management information storage section for storing said managed object;

    an agent identification device for identifying another agent device transmitting an execution request of said management function when said enhanced operational object needs to transmit a management function execution request to said agent device; and

    a remote function execution section having means of issuing a management function execution request to another agent device decided by said agent identification device, means of executing a required enhanced operational object when another agent device requires executing a management function, means of communicating with said standard enhanced operational object server which stores said standard enhanced operational object and then dynamically capturing said standard enhanced operational object, and means of establishing communications via said name resolution server and a network.
