Abstract
Power Line Communication (PLC) is an evolving communication network technology using the existing power lines and enables to provide the automatic meter reading service, high-speed Internet service as well as home networking service. As the use of PLC network and their applications increase, we need to manage the resources of PLC networks efficiently. Major PLC chipset and modem vendors are trying to provide network management solutions, but they are only specific solutions. It is necessary to provide a general PLC network management solution for PLC networks comprised of PLC devices from heterogeneous vendors. In this paper, we propose a PLC network management system called i-NetMSuite4PLC. We also propose a common PLC MIB (Management Information Base) based on some existing PLC MIBs. We present the design and implementation of the system.
