SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is a standard network management protocol widely used in

computer network management. SNMP is an evolving protocol. SNMP v1 [RFC1157] is the first version of

SNMP which is adapted by vast numbers of manufacturers for its simplicity and easy implementation; SNMP

v2c is an enhanced version of SNMP v1, which supports layered network management; SNMP v3

strengthens the security by adding USM (User-based Security Mode) and VACM (View-based Access

Control Model).

SNMP protocol provides a simple way of exchange network management information between two points in

SNMP protocol employs a station-agent mode. There are two parts in this structure: NMS (Network
