SNMP Statistics
The SNMP Statistics dialog box provides statistical information on Simple Network Management
Protocol (SNMP).
SNMP is an application layer protocol that facilitates the exchange of management information
between network devices. There are three key components in SNMP: the devices that are to be
managed, agents, and the network management systems. The managed device is the network
device, like a router. The agent is the software module residing in the managed device pertaining to
network management. The network management system runs the SNMP application that controls
the managed devices and monitors their status. There are four primary operations performed using
SNMP. They are Set, Get, Get Next, and Trap.
You can use these statistics to help troubleshoot in the event you have a problem communicating
with the MultiFRAD from your SNMP manager.
