SNMP Operations

SNMP itself is a simple request/response protocol. NMSs can send multiple requests without receiving a response.

Get --

Allows the NMS to retrieve an object instance from the agent.

Set --

Allows the NMS to set values for object instances within an agent.

Trap --

Used by the agent to asynchronously inform the NMS of some event. The SNMPv2 trap message is designed to

replace the SNMPv1 trap message.

SNMP community

An SNMP community is the group that devices and management stations running SNMP belong to. It helps define where information

is sent. The community name is used to identify the group. A SNMP device or agent may belong to more than one SNMP community.

It will not respond to requests from management stations that do not belong to one of its communities. SNMP default communities

are:

Write

= private

Read

= public
