SNMP Overview

SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) provides a Management framework
to monitor and maintain Network devices. It is used to automatically manage various
Network devices. Currently most Network Management systems are based on SNMP.

SNMP is simple and convenient to use with no need for complex functions or a large
amount of Network resources. With the SNMP function enabled, Network administra-
tors can easily monitor Network performance, detect malfunctions and configure
Network devices. They can also locate faults, implement fault diagnosis, create capac-
ity plans and generate reports related to network usage.

Management Station, an SNMP Agent and the MIB (Management Information Base).

the administrator to manage most Network devices.

devices. It handles the responsibility of receiving and processing SNMP Request
