Configuring SNMP
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is a set of protocols for
managing complex networks. SNMP consists of the following:
An SNMP manager
An SNMP agent
A database of management information
Managed SNMP devices
The network protocol
The SNMP manager provides an interface between a network manager
and the management system. The SNMP agent provides an interface
between the manager and the physical devices being managed. The agent
sends a Trap when a specific event occurs.
You can use SNMP to run a test to check the health of a fiber. This test is
called Test on Demand (TOD), as it can be run as per your requirement.
Test on Demand can be run on RTU, using SNMP from a third party SNMP
manager or any third party application.
