There is a need for a framework wherein the infrastructural and service related information about communication networks can be made accessible from all places and at all times in a reasonably efficient manner and with reasonable accuracy. This document presents a model in which a communication network with all its related details and descriptions can be represented in the X.500 Directory. Schemas of objects and their attributes which may be used for this purpose are presented. The model envisages physical objects and several logical abstractions of the physical objects.
