SNMP is a protocol for network management. The SNMP manager enables integrated
management of the operating status and fault status of the terminals in the network. The
SNMP agents return management information referred to as MIB (Management Information
Base) in response to the SNMP manager's request.
For specific kinds of information, the agents can use the TRAP function to send asynchronous
notifications to the SNMP manager .
Note:
Several kinds of SNMP manager may be available. For example, Web SysAdmin, WSA,
