Description:
|
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an Internet protocol that was originally
designed to manage different network devices, such as file servers, hubs, routers
and so on. It can also be used to manage and control an ever increasing number
of small embedded systems connected to one another over any IP network. Systems
can communicate with each other using SNMP to transfer control and status information,
creating a truly distributed system. Unlike more familiar human-oriented protocols
like HTTP, SNMP is considered a machine-to-machine protocol.
