- 3. About SNMP? • SNMPis not a product of any single or specific company. It is the guidelines which are available to everyone. • It is implemented on a wide range of hardware which include the network devices such as: switches, bridges, routes, & gateways. It can also be found on the end point equipment such as printers. • The study shows that is has been discovered that the manufacturers include SNMP agents on operating system of devices that we buy to include our own network.
- 4. List of Systemsthat Implemented SNMP • The following are the commonly used system that have implemented SNMP a) Solar Winds Network Performance Monitor b) Paeesler PRTG Network Monitor c) Manage Engine OP Manager
- 6. Work of SNMP •Its basic work is to handle standard protocol devices. • It monitors the network errors & problems when the devices are connected in bulk then there is most chance of complexity to occur. • Now to handle such complexity we have to use SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol).
- 7. SNMP Elements • SNMPinclude following three elements a) Managed Devices b) Software Agents c) Network Management Systems
- 8. Components of SNMP •SNMP Managers • SNMP Agents • SNMP Devices • MIB (Management Information Base)

- 12. What are SNMPTraps? • SNMP Traps are alert messages sent from a remote SNMP-enabled device to a central collector, the "SNMP manager". • A Trap might tell you that a device is overheating etc. • Trap messages are the main form of communication between an SNMP Agent and an SNMP Manager. • They are used to inform an SNMP manager when an important event happens at the Agent level. • A benefit of using Traps for reporting alarms is that they trigger instantaneously, rather than waiting for a status request from the manager.
- 13. What devices sendSNMP traps? SNMP traps are most commonly issued by one of two device types. a) Newer devices are able to send traps on their own to alert an SNMP trap manager when they experience a problem. b) For older devices that do not support SNMP, an SNMP RTU(Remote Telemetry Unit) may be used to collect alarms from multiple legacy devices, convert them to SNMP traps, and transmit them (most commonly over LAN) back to your SNMP manager.
- 14. Are there differentSNMP trap types? • Yes. The most important thing to keep in mind is SNMP versions, like v1, v2c, and v3. • Each version has different pros and cons, and you need to think about compatibility. SNMPv3 supports encryption for security, while SNMPv1 is very simple to set up. • If you have standardized on SNMPv3, For example You're going to need SNMPv3 devices. Older devices will need to be upgraded.
- 15. What are limitationsof SNMP traps? • SNMP trap provides no proof that the message is received by the SNMP manager. • Newer versions of SNMP include a new type of message called an "inform" message. An SNMP inform message is confirmed by the SNMP manager. • If SNMP agent does not see confirmation from the SNMP manager that its SNMP inform message has been received, it will resend the inform message. • Because SNMP is asynchronous (messages are sent only when something must be reported), there's also no automatic way to be sure a device is still online. • Because SNMP is one specific protocol it's incompatible with others, like Modbus or DNP3. To solve this problem, you'll need an SNMP conversion device:
