Thesis (M.S. in Information Technology Management)--Naval Postgraduate School, Sept. 1997.

The purpose of this thesis is to propose a Web based interface solution to the Navy's mission centric network management needs. A Web based interface provides an easy to manipulate, universal client that can be accessed from any desktop that is connected to the Internet. A Web based interface can be designed to show decision makers and managers the status of network centric information and how it affects the mission of Navy units. This thesis also briefly describes basic network management techniques and the use of the Navy's Automated Digital Networking System (ADNS). As the Navy adopts a network centric approach for every day business, including warfighting, network management becomes extremely critical. Commercial products can't fulfill all Navy specific requirements. The use of the Web is a solution to provide mission centric network management information to the manager and decision maker in an easy to use environment.
