SNMP

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is the Internet Standard protocol for network
management and part of the TCP/IP protocol suite. SNMP was developed by the Internet
community to monitor and manage networks. It uses a distributed architecture that consists of
managers and agents.

The SNMP agent is an SNMP application that monitors network traffic and responds to queries
from SNMP manager applications. The agent also notifies the manager when significant events
occur by sending a trap.

An SNMP manager is an SNMP application that generates queries to SNMP-agent applications
and receives traps from SNMP-agent applications.
