SNMP Simple Network Management Protocol

Enhancements
Version 1600 and higher is required.
Description
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an application-layer protocol designed to facilitate the
exchange of management information between devices which are on the network. By using
SNMP-transported data (such as packets per second and network error rates), network administrators
can easily manage network performance, find and solve network problems, and plan for network growth.
SNMP is part of the Internet network management architecture. This architecture is based on the
interaction of many entities, as described in the following Elite IPK II SNMP Installation Manual.
The SNMP Agent is located on the Elite IPK II CPUII. Since the Elite IPK II CPUII controls most of the
ETUs, this provides a great advantage of capturing most of the ETU status, failure and alarm details.
The major components of SNMP Implementations on the Elite IPK II system support MIB-II as well as
private MIB to accommodate all necessary KTS related data types.
