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.
