• Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
SNMP provides a standardized method, for network management stations, to interrogate devices from different
vendors. SNMP versions supported by RUGGEDCOM ROS are v1, v2c and v3. SNMPv3 in particular provides
security features (such as authentication, privacy, and access control) not present in earlier SNMP versions.
RUGGEDCOM ROS also supports numerous standard MIBs (Management Information Base) allowing for easy
integration with any Network Management System (NMS). A feature of SNMP is the ability to generate traps
upon system events. RUGGEDCOM NMS, the Siemens management solution, can record traps from multiple
devices providing a powerful network troubleshooting tool. It also provides a graphical visualization of the
network and is fully integrated with all Siemens products.
