The different versions of SNMP are the SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, and
SNMPv3.
• SNMPv1 is the standard version of SNMP. SNMPv1 framework
distinguishes between application entities and protocol entities.
• The SNMPv2c was created as an update of SNMPv1 with several
features. The key enhancements of SNMPv2c are focused on the SMI,
Manager-to-manager capability, and protocol operations.
• SNMPv3 defines the secure version of the SNMP. In SNMPv3,
the concept of an authentication service is expanded to include
other services, such as privacy. SNMPv3 also facilitates remote
configuration of the SNMP entities. SNMPv3 was formed mainly to
address the deficiencies related to security and administration.
