Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a set of protocols for managing complex networks. SNMP protocols are application
layer protocols. Using SNMP, devices within a network send messages, called protocol data units (PDUs), to different parts of a network.
Network management using SNMP requires three components:
∙ SNMP Manager
∙ SNMP Agent
∙ Management Information Base (MIB)
