The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is used to communicate management information

between the network management stations and the agents in the network elements. FTOS supports

SNMP versions 1, 2c, and 3, supporting both read-only and read-write modes. FTOS sends SNMP

traps, which are messages informing an SNMP management system about the network. FTOS supports

up to 16 SNMP trap receivers.
