25.1. Overview
As a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)-based application,
WipManage can receive traps generated internally by WipManage and generated by
ASWipLL devices. Each ASWipLL device contains an SNMP agent (residing on the
device) that collects and stores the device's data (e.g. configuration parameter
settings) in a management database type called
Management Information Base
(MIBs). This information can be retrieved or modified by WipManage using SNMP
commands (i.e.
read
and
write
). The SNMP
trap
command allows the device to
automatically report events by sending traps to WipManage.
