Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is a troubleshooting and management protocol, which
uses the UDP protocol on port 161 to communicate between clients and servers. SNMP uses a
manager MIB (management information base) agent solution to fulfill the network management needs.
The agent is a separate station that can request data from an SNMP agent in each of the different
system in the network. The agent uses MIBs as dictionaries of manageable objects. Each SNMP-
managed device has at least one agent that can respond to the queries from the NMS. The SNMP
agent supports GETS, SETS, and TRAPS for 4 groups with MIB-II: System, Interface, IP, and ICMP.
The SNMP agent supports three-community names authentication.
