Managing System Resources 4-17
SNMP-managed devices on a network send messages (traps) when a
preset level of device activity occurs. Notification of events with SNMP
traps is sent to a network manager upon reaching either a user-specified
over-threshold or under-threshold condition for any supported
management information base (MIB) variable.
The following sections describe how to install and configure the NEC
SNMP Agent on Microsoft Windows 98, Windows 2000, or Windows NT
configured systems.
Installing the NEC SNMP Agent

Do not install both the NEC SNMP Agent and LANDesk Client Manager
on the same computer. The two applications are incompatible, and neither
can be removed using the uninstall utility. To remove them, a full restore
must be performed after which all applications must be reinstalled.
The NEC SNMP Agent and the NEC WebTelligent software are each
installed using a Setup.exe program launched from a subdirectory on the
NEC Application and Driver CD. You can install these applications
without regard to the order in which other applications are installed.
