The paper introduces the TMN-based Information Model Simulator (TIMS) toolkit, a rapid-prototyping environment for TMN information models and explains how it is used in a real-life example. Based on GDMO/ASN.1, GRM and a formal behavior description, the toolkit generates TMN systems and allows both the visualization of MIBs at run-time and the access to it through CMIP. Behavior of object models is described through the use of relationships which leads to considerable simplification of the behavior and is the first step for a distributed environment. Assertion mechanisms permit the designer to verify the correct state of the model at run-time. The paper publishes the results of the tools use for the specification of a management interface for the V5 access network interface.
