 Managed device
 Agent - software which runs on managed devices
 Network management station (NMS) - software which runs on the manager
A managed device is a network node that implements an SNMP interface that allows
unidirectional (read-only) or bidirectional (read and write) access to node-specific
information. Managed devices exchange node-specific information with the NMSs.
Sometimes called network elements, the managed devices can be any type of device,
including, but not limited to, routers, access servers, switches, bridges, hubs, IP telephones,
IP video cameras, computer hosts, and printers.
An agent is a network-management software module that resides on a managed device. An
agent has local knowledge of management information and translates that information to or
from an SNMP-specific form.
A network management station (NMS) executes applications that monitor and control
managed devices. NMSs provide the bulk of the processing and memory resources required
for network management. One or more NMSs may exist on any managed network.
