name: DM
full_form: Device Management
context: This clause shows the placement of SOA basic elements SPs and SCs within the Management reference model (see Figure 1). Figure 2d: Placement of SOA elements on Management reference model For example, the right-hand side DM (a Management reference model construct) of Figure 2d shows an entity that is an aggregation of SOA basic elements (see clause 5.4.2). This entity produces and consumes services (see Figure of clause 5.4.2). It has two SPs and three SCs. In addition, it has an F function that mediates between services DM provides and the services DM requires. The DM services are provided to one SC of the neighboring DM and to two SCs of two NMs. The DM requires services from two SPs of the two NEs. One of the SPs of this DM provides a network management service via the Type 2 interface. One of the SPs supports the peer-to-peer protocol by offering services to its neighboring DM via Interface 4a. Three SCs of this DM are consumer of network management services offered by two NEs via
description: Device Management (DM) is a Network Function that manages and controls the interaction between devices within the network, providing services such as network management and peer-to-peer protocol support.
explanation: The text explicitly states that Device Management (DM) is a Network Function. It describes DM's role in managing devices and providing network management and peer-to-peer protocol support, which are typical functions of a Network Function.
