Review of Standards. To keep abreast of progress in industry, Joint Australian/

New Zealand Standards are subject to periodic review and are kept up to date by the
issue of amendments or new editions as necessary. It is important therefore that
Standards users ensure that they are in possession of the latest edition, and any
amendments thereto.
Full details of all Joint Standards and related publications will be found in the
Standards Australia and Standards New Zealand Catalogue of Publications; this
information is supplemented each month by the magazines ‘The Australian Standard’
and ‘Standards New Zealand’, which subscribing members receive, and which give
details of new publications, new editions and amendments, and of withdrawn
Standards.
Suggestions for improvements to Joint Standards, addressed to the head office of either
Standards Australia or Standards New Zealand, are welcomed. Notification of any
inaccuracy or ambiguity found in a Joint Australian/New Zealand Standard should be
made without delay in order that the matter may be investigated and appropriate action
taken.

PREFACE

This Standard was prepared by the Joint Australia/New Zealand Standards Committee IT/1, on
Information Systems— Interconnection. It is identical with, and has been reproduced from,
ISO/IEC 10164-7:1992, Information technology— Open Systems Interconnection— Systems Management:
Security alarm reporting function.
This Joint Standard is one of a series of Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Standards which are
currently under development. Since OSI Standards are developmental, there may be some minor
difficulties encountered in their implementation. For this reason, Standards Australia will be providing,
through the OSI Help Desk, a service to coordinate and disseminate information concerning difficulties
which are identified in using this Joint Standard.
Under arrangements made between Standards Australia/Standards New Zealand and the international
Standards bodies, ISO and IEC, as well as certain other Standards organizations, users of this Joint

1 Scope
This Recommendation International Standard defines the security alarm reporting function. The security alarm
reporting function is a systems management function which may be used by an application process in a
centralized or decentralized management environment to exchange information for the purpose of systems
management, as defined by CCITT Rec. X.700 ISO/IEC 7498-4. This Recommendation International Standard
is positioned in the application layer of CCITT Rec. X.200 ISO 7498 and is defined according to the model
provided by ISO/IEC 9545. The role of systems management functions is described by CCITT Rec. X.701
ISO/IEC 10040. The security alarm notifications defined by this systems management function provide
information regarding operational condition and quality of service, pertaining to security.
Security-related events are of relevance to the provision of security. The security policy determines the actions
to be undertaken whenever a security-related event has occured. The security policy may, for example, specify
that a security alarm report be generated, a record of the event be made in a security audit trail, a threshold
counter be incremented, the event be ignored, or a combination of these actions be taken. This Recommendation
International Standard is only concerned with security alarm reporting.
This Recommendation International Standard
— establishes user requirements for the service definition needed to support the security alarm
reporting function;
— defines the service provided by the security alarm reporting function;
— specifies the protocol that is necessary in order to provide the service;
— defines the relationship between the service and management notifications;
— defines relationships with other systems management functions;
— specifies conformance requirements.
This Recommendation International Standard does not
— define the nature of any implementation intended to provide the security alarm reporting function;
— specify the manner in which management is accomplished by the user of the security alarm
reporting function;
— define the nature of any interactions which result in the use of the security alarm reporting
function;
— specify the services necessary for the establishment, normal and abnormal release of a
management association;
— define any other notifications, defined by other Recommendations International Standards, which
may be of interest to a security administrator.
