In this paper, the access control management function of several system management functions(SMFs) from the X.741 ITU-T recommendation is considered for security network management systems based on the common management information service element(CMISE) of OSI network management and a naming method using the general relationship model(GRM) is intended to extended to an access control model. When a manager is to perform network management operations through a remote agent in a distributed network, all managed objects (MO) in the management information base (MIB) that is managed by the agent must have a globally unique name so that each MO in the MIB is identified by the manager and access control functions for the MOs are carried out. Therefore, an access control model is proposed which extends the relationship used in the global naming scheme and in which each MO inherits access control characteristics from a domain class as a superclass in the inheritance tree of the MIB.
