4. 10. 9. SNMP Settings
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) has been widely applied in the computer
networks currently, which is used for ensuring the transmission of the management
information between two nodes. In this way, network administrators can easily search
and modify the information on any node on the network. Meanwhile, they can locate
faults promptly and implement the fault diagnosis, capacity planning and report
generating.
An SNMP Agent is an application running on the router that performs the operational
role of receiving and processing SNMP messages, sending responses to the SNMP
manager, and sending traps when an event occurs. So a router contains SNMP “agent”
software can be monitored and/or controlled by SNMP Manager using SNMP messages.
