4.4.2 ADVANCED - SNMP

SNMP: Simple Network Management Protocol ( SNMP ) is a troubleshooting and management protocol,

which uses the UDP protocol on port 161 to communicate between clients and servers.

SNMP uses a manager MIB (management information base) agent solution to fulfill the network management

needs. The agent is a separate station that can request data from an SNMP agent in each of the different

managed system in the network.

The agent uses the MIBs as dictionaries of manageable objects. Each SNMP-managed device has at least

one agent that can respond to the queries from the NMS. The SNMP agent supports GETS, SETS, and

TRAPS for 4 groups with MIB-II: System, Interface, IP, and ICMP.

„

SNMP Agent: Click to enable the SNMP Agent. An SNMP agent is a node that resides on the

network, typically a computer or a router. The SNMP agent is controlled and configured by the

NMS by sending SNMP messages between one another. SNMP agents are logged and identified

in a Management Information Base (MIB), in which they are identified by an object identifier (OID).

„

SNMP Traps: Click to enable the SNMP Traps. SNMP traps are used to notify network managers

of significant events that have taken place in the network. These traps are sent to the SNMP NMS

( NMS Server located at Trap IP ) through the specified Ports.
