4.4.3 ADVANCED - SNMP
SNMP: Simple Network Management Protocol
(
SNMP
) is a troubleshooting and management protocol,
which uses the UDP protocol on port 161 to communicate between clients and servers.
SNMP uses a manager MIB (management information base) agent solution to fulfill the network management
needs. The agent is a separate station that can request data from an SNMP agent in each of the different
managed system in the network.
The agent uses the MIBs as dictionaries of manageable objects. Each SNMP-managed device has at least
one agent that can respond to the queries from the NMS. The SNMP agent supports GETS, SETS, and
TRAPS for 4 groups with MIB-II: System, Interface, IP, and ICMP.
SNMP Agent:
Click to enable the
SNMP Agent
. An SNMP agent is a node that resides on the
network, typically a computer or a router. The SNMP agent is controlled and configured by the
NMS by sending SNMP messages between one another. SNMP agents are logged and identified
in a Management Information Base (MIB), in which they are identified by an object identifier (OID).
SNMP Traps:
Click to enable the
SNMP Traps
. SNMP traps are used to notify network managers
of significant events that have taken place in the network. These traps are sent to the SNMP NMS
( NMS Server located at Trap IP ) through the specified Ports.
Name:

convention, this is the node's fully-qualified domain name.
Location:
The physical location of the 4 Ports 11g Wireless ADSL2/2+ Router.
