SNMP Daemon Settings
Short for Simple Network Management Protocol, SNMP is a set of protocols
for managing complex networks. SNMP works by sending messages, called
protocol data units (PDUs), to different parts of a network. SNMP-compliant
devices (agents), store data about themselves in Management Information
Bases (MIBs) and return this data to the SNMP requesters.
The ACS uses the Net-SNMP package (http://www.net-snmp.org). The Net-
SNMP package contains various tools relating to the Simple Network
Management Protocol including an extensible agent, an SNMP library, tools
to request or set information from SNMP agents, tools to generate and handle
SNMP traps, a version of the unix 'netstat' command using SNMP and a
Tk/perl mib browser.
