You must configure the SNMP agent to use the SNMP version supported by the management station.
Because an agent can communicate with multiple managers, you can configure the software to support
communications using SNMPv1, and SNMPv2C, and SNMPv3 protocols.

SNMP Manager Functions

The SNMP manager uses information in the MIB to perform the operations described in
Table 30-2 SNMP Operations

get-request
get-next-request
get-bulk-request
get-response
set-request

Description
Retrieves a value from a specific variable.
Retrieves a value from a variable within a table.
2
Retrieves large blocks of data, such as multiple rows in a table, that would
otherwise require the transmission of many small blocks of data.
Replies to a get-request, get-next-request, and set-request sent by an NMS.
Stores a value in a specific variable.
An unsolicited message sent by an SNMP agent to an SNMP manager when some
event has occurred.
find the needed variable from within a table.
Encryption Result
Uses a community string match for authentication.
Uses a community string match for authentication.
No Uses a username match for authentication.
No Provides authentication based on the HMAC-MD5
or HMAC-SHA algorithms.
DES Provides authentication based on the HMAC-MD5
or HMAC-SHA algorithms.
Provides DES 56-bit encryption in addition to
authentication based on the CBC-DES (DES-56)
standard.
