Chapter 2 Monitoring the System
SNMP Basics
• An SNMP management application, together with the computer it runs on, is
called a network management system (NMS). An NMS executes applications
that monitor and control managed devices. NMSs provide the bulk of the
processing and memory resources required for network management. The
Cisco ICS 7750 is compatible with the following NMSs:
–
ICS System Manager
–
CiscoWorks2000
–
HP OpenView
Figure 2-1 shows the relationships between the managed devices and agents, and
the NMS.
