Chapter 21 - Network management: SNMP. Upon completion you will be able to: Understand the SNMP manager and the SNMP agent, understand the roles of SMI and MIB in network management, be familiar with SMI object attributes and encoding methods, know how an MIB variable is accessed, be familiar with the SNMP PDU and format. | Chapter 21 Upon completion you will be able to: Network Management: SNMP Understand the SNMP manager and the SNMP agent Understand the roles of SMI and MIB in network management Be familiar with SMI object attributes and encoding methods Know how an MIB variable is accessed Be familiar with the SNMP PDU and format Objectives TCP/IP Protocol Suite CONCEPT SNMP defines a manager, usually a host, that controls and monitors a set of agents, usually routers. The topics discussed in this section include: Managers and Agents TCP/IP Protocol Suite Figure SNMP concept TCP/IP Protocol Suite MANAGEMENT COMPONENTS SNMP requires the use of two other protocols: Structure of Management Information (SMI) and Management Information Base (MIB). Network management on the Internet is done through the cooperation of SNMP, SMI, and MIB.

It reads and changes the status (values) of objects (variables) in SNMP packets. Note: TCP/IP Protocol Suite SMI defines the general rules for naming objects, defining object types (including range and length), and showing how to encode objects and values. SMI defines neither the number of objects an entity should manage, nor names the objects to be managed nor defines the association between the objects and their values. Note: TCP/IP Protocol Suite MIB creates a collection of named objects, their types, and their relationships to each other in an entity to be managed. Note: TCP/IP Protocol Suite We can compare the task of network management to the task of writing a program. ❏ Both tasks need rules. In network management this is handled by SMI. ❏ Both tasks need variable declarations. In network management this is handled
