Managing SNMP Settings
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a set of standard protocols used to
manage and monitor multiplatform computer network devices. SNMP uses a manager/
agent design.
SNMP relies on a manager/agent design where the agent provides the interface
between the manager and the physical device being managed. SNMP uses five basic
messages (GET, GET-NEXT, GET-RESPONSE, SET, and TRAP) to communicate between
the manager and the agent.
