The standard provides MTI 800 series network management message class to control<br />
the following types <strong>of</strong> network management activity:<br />
• System condition management, which is used to establish and report system<br />
availability and to give instructions<br />
pertaining to message handling during<br />
periods <strong>of</strong> system unavailability<br />
• System security management, which is used to control security aspects <strong>of</strong> the<br />
interchange system<br />
such as key and password management and security alerts.<br />
These messages may be used as part <strong>of</strong> a security procedure, e.g., automatic<br />
periodic key changes<br />
• System accounting management, which is used to identify the end <strong>of</strong> a<br />
reconciliation period. These messages may be used as part <strong>of</strong><br />

acknowledge the receipt <strong>of</strong> the most recently sent group <strong>of</strong> instruction<br />
messages. The Da ta Record data element present in these<br />
message classes is utilized for<br />
the<br />
actual transfer <strong>of</strong> data and may or may not be based on the message types identified<br />
in this standard. Data Record data element is variable length and its structure and the<br />
content can be specified by the parties involved in the exchange. This allows parties<br />

the transmission to further define the requirements <strong>of</strong> the Data Record data element,<br />
