SNMP
Short for Simple Network Management Protocol, SNMP is a set of protocols
for managing network devices. SNMP works by sending messages, called
protocol data units (PDUs), to different parts of a network. SNMP-compliant
devices (agents), store data about themselves in Management Information
Bases (MIBs) and return this data to the SNMP requesters.
The KVM/net uses the Net-SNMP package (http://www.net-snmp.org/). The
Net-SNMP package contains various tools relating to the Simple Network
Management Protocol including an extensible agent, an SNMP library, tools
to request or set information from SNMP agents, tools to generate and handle
Subnet The netmask of the subnetwork where the host
resides.

nn. The IP number followed by a slash and the
number of ‘one’ bits in the binary notation of
the netmask. For example, 192.168.0.0/24
indicates an IP address where the first 24 bits
are used as the network address. This is the
same as 255.255.255.0.
