SNMP
SNMP is the protocol used to communicate between manager and
agent. Managers request information, usually through automated
polling at specified intervals, and agents respond. PrintNet SNMP
is used on TCP/IP network only.
SNMP is a standard by which a network manager can get statistics
and configuration information from the print servers and other
devices on the network. This is done through a Network
Management Station (NMS) such as NetView
®
. Currently only
SNMP version 1 protocol is supported.
Monitoring Tools
Many tools can be used to monitor printers with SNMP agents. One
of these tools is NetView. There are also other MIB browsers which
are not described here.
Monitoring with AIX NetView/6000
The AIX NetView/6000 program can manage any IP-addressable
device with an SNMP agent.
NetView/6000 can be used to set a network topology, monitor a
network, diagnose problems, and measure network performance.
Through its MIB Browser, information about the resources affecting
an event (such as an alarm) can be obtained.
