Simple Network Management Protocol is a UDP-based network protocol. It is used mostly in network management systems to monitor and control network connected devices like the Jotron radios. SNMP is a component of the Internet Protocol Suite as defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). It consists of a set of standards for network management, including an applica on layer protocol, a database schema, and a set of data objects.
1.1 Design The TR-910 is a compact, high-quality radio available in a variety of configura ons to meet the high demands of the ATC and Oil and Gas industries where a small, rugged and durable radio unit is needed. The radio has an all metal housing, making it very robust but s ll light enough to be carried as a manpack.
