SNMP Manager
Description
An SNMP manager is a combination of monitoring software running on a network
management station (NMS) and the actual device running the software. It collects and
acts on information from the various devices being monitored and/or controlled. The
SNMP manager also periodically polls the devices it is managing to get status
information. AI296 allows for the configuration of up to 5 SNMP managers.

Note: SNMP managers are only configurable when AI296 is in standalone mode.
They are not configurable through the AI198 menu system.
