6.19 SNMP Configuration
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is the protocol developed to manage
nodes (servers, workstations, routers, switches and hubs etc.) on an IP network. SNMP
enables network administrators to manage network performance, find and solve network
problems, and plan for network growth. Network management systems learn of problems
by receiving traps or change notices from network devices implementing SNMP.
