Chapter 4: Hardened Ethernet Extender Switch Management
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
SNMP is the standard management protocol for multivendor IP networks. SNMP
supports transaction-based queries that allow the protocol to format messages
and to transmit information between reporting devices and data-collection
programs. SNMP runs on top of the User Datagram Protocol (UDP), offering a
connectionless-mode service.
4.6 Management Architecture
All the management application modules use the same Messaging Application
Programming Interface (MAPI). By unifying management methods with a single
MAPI, configuration parameters set using one method (for example, console port)
are immediately displayed the other management methods (for example, SNMP
agent of the Web browser).
The management architecture of the Hardened Ethernet Extender Switch adheres
to the IEEE open standard. This compliance ensures customers that the Hardened
Ethernet Extender Switch is compatible with, and will interoperate with other
solutions that adhere to the same open standard.
