SIMPLE NETWORK MANAGEMENT
PROTOCOL (SNMP)
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) governs the network
management and monitoring of network devices and their functions. In
addition, SNMP provides secure access to these devices by strategies that can
consist of authorizing, authenticating and encrypting SNMP packeting over a
network.
SNMPv3 includes the SNMPv3 entity. An SNMPv3 entity consists of an SNMP
engine and SNMPv application. The SNMP engine has the functionality of
both the SNMP agent and SNMP manager.
