SNMP → SNMP
SNMP (
Simple Network Management Protocol
)
– is a protocol used to
manage and monitor network devices. Using the SNMP protocol, the software can
access information that is stored on managed devices (for example, on a switch). On
managed devices, SNMP stores information about the device on which it operates in
a database called MIB.
The switch supports SNMP v1 and SNMP v3.
