- Abstract: Mobile communication on the Internet sets more security
concerns than traditional mobile networks such as GSM.The network infrastructure
registration process should give credentials to the user to let him or her
being identi .ed by any service provider in order to preven fraudulen use.In
addition,a user should be able to communicate with privacy and to sign a
message (e.g.a paymen order)so that billing is possible. Users should be
able to connect from everywhere,with various ypes of terminals,possibly mobile.In
this paper,we propose to secure an infrastructure providing telecommunication
services on the Internet for a mobile user.We establish a trust relationship
be ween any pair of the parties with a password-based user access.As for
user-to-user commu- nication,both signaling and media data can be secured.We
illustrate the use of this infrastructure to provide secure IP-Telephony.

- Abstract: This paper explores the use of structural
and co-operation relations between network components for fault management,
particularly during the alarm correlation and fault diagnosis phases. Aggregation,
connectivity and use-of-service relations are defined as basic units for
building more complex relations. Relations' utilisation policies are defined
to help during the alarm correlation and fault diagnosis processes. An example
of a mobile wireless network is presented to illustrate the benefits of
the relation based alarms correlation.
