Chapter 6 Logging in through NMS
6.1 Introduction
You can also log into a switch through an NMS (network management station), and
then configure and manage the switch through the agent module on the switch.
The agent here refers to the software running on network devices (switches) and
as the server.
SNMP (simple network management protocol) is applied between the NMS and
the agent.
To log into a switch through an NMS, you need to perform related configuration on both
the NMS and the switch.
