Diagnostics with SNMP
Requirement
The requirement for using SNMP is the enabling of the function in the configuration, see
section SNMP (Page 45).
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol)
SNMP is a protocol for diagnostics and managing networks and nodes in the network. To
transmit data, SNMP uses the connectionless UDP protocol.
The information on the properties of SNMP-compliant devices is entered in MIB files (MIB =

You will find detailed information on SNMP and the Siemens Automation MIB in the manual
/6/ (Page 120).
