SNMP
In addition, the switches can be managed in-band from a work-
station using EliteView or any other SNMP-based manager.
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), the most popu-
lar management protocol in use today, defines the structure of
information maintained on a device being managed, and the
operations used to access the information. SNMP provides two
levels of management security protection based on community
names. The SNMP Get community name provides read-only
access to the information, while the SNMP Set community name
enables you to modify the information. See Chapter 6,
“Managing Via SNMP” for information on in-band SNMP
management.
