3.1.2 SNMP Config
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an application layer protocol that
facilitates the exchange of management information between network devices. There is a
set of protocols for managing complex networks. SNMP works by sending messages,
called protocol data units (PDUs), to different parts of a network. SNMP enables network
administrators to manage network performance, find and solve network problems, and
plan for network growth.
A SNMP-managed network consists of three key components, managed devices, agents,
and network-management systems (NMSs).
A managed device is a network node that contains an SNMP agent and that resides in a
managed network. Managed devices collect and store management information and make
this information available to NMSs by using SNMP. Managed devices, sometimes called
network elements, can be routers and access servers, switches and bridges, computers
hosts, or printers.
This function is to define a community string name. An agent is a network-management
software module that resides in a managed device. An agent has local knowledge of
management information and translates that information into a form compatible with
SNMP.
An NMS executes applications that monitor and control managed devices. NMSs provide
the bulk of the processing and memory resources required for network management. One
or more NMSs must exist on any managed network.
