What is SNMP?
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a protocol used for exchanging
management information between network devices. SNMP is a member of the TCP/IP protocol
suite. This product series supports SNMP v1, v2c and V3.
Typical SNMP Architecture:
An SNMP managed network consists of two main components: Agent of the Managed Device
and Manager (Network Management System, NMS).
Agent of the Managed Device: An agent is a management software module that resides in
AP/Gateway. An agent translates the local management information (Management Information
Base, MIB) from the managed device into a SNMP compatible format. In MIB, all the status and
settings of the AP/Gateway has its own specific object ID (OID), the manager can read or write the
value of the OID.
