The Common Management Information Services (CMIS) is part of the OSI body of network standards.
Network management information services are used by peer processes to exchange information and commands for the purpose of network management. CMIS defines a message set (GET, CANCEL-GET, SET, CREATE, DELETE, EVENT-REPORT and ACTION), and the structure and content of the messages such that they might be used by "open" systems. In concept, it is similar to SNMP, but more powerful (and hence more complex).
The protocol implementing the CMIS message set is known as the Common Management Interface Protocol (CMIP). Note the term CMIP is sometimes used erroneously instead of the correct term CMIS.
ISO/IEC 9595.
