As the networks becoming more complex and heterogeneous, there has been a growing demand for the network management tools. In this paper, the authors propose a model for web-based network intelligent management. It adopts a temporal data model as the underlying information model, and a rule based network intelligent control and management strategy as an automatic and adaptive management method to the networks. Moreover, the functions provided by this model as well as the hierarchical architecture of its related software supporting them and a prototype are presented in this paper.
