Introduction - SNMP Tutorial

30.1 Introduction

  In addition to protocols that provide network level services and application programs that use those services, an internet needs software that allows managers to debug problems, control routing, and find computers that violate protocol standards. We refer to such activities as internet mnagement.This chapter considers the ideas behind TCP/IP internet management software, and describes an internet management protocol.

Summary - SNMP Tutorial

30.13 Summary Network management protocols allow a manager to monitor and control routers and hosts. A network management client program executing on the manager's workstation contacts one or more servers, called agents, running on the devices to be

Protocol Framework - SNMP Tutorial

30.4 Protocol Framework TCP/IP network management protocols2 divide the management problem into two parts and specify separate standards for each part. The first part concerns communication of information. A protocol specifies how client software run

SNMP Message Format - SNMP Tutorial

30.10 SNMP Message Format Unlike most TCP/IP protocols, SNMP messages do not have fixed fields. Instead, they use the standard ASN.1 encoding. Thus, a message can be difficult for humans to decode and understand. After examining the SNMP message defi

Example: Encoded SNMP Message - SNMP Tutorial

30.11 Example Encoded SNMP Message The encoded form of ASN.1 uses variable-length fields to represent items. In general, each field begins with a header that specifies the type of object and its length in bytes. For example, each SEQUENCE begins with

Examples of MIB Variables - SNMP Tutorial

30.5 Examples of MIB Variables Versions 1 and 2 of SNMP each collected variables together in a single large MIB, with the entire set documented in a single RFC. After publication of the second generation, MIB-II, the IETF took a different approach by

Structure And Representation Of MIB Object Names - SNMP Tutorial

30.8 Structure And Representation Of MIB Object Names We said that ASN.1 specifies how to represent both data items and names. However, understanding the names used for MIBvariables requires us to know about the underlying namespace. Names used for M

Structure Of Management Information - SNMP Tutorial

30.6 The Structure Of Management Information In addition to the standards that specify MIB variables and their meanings, a separate standard specifies a set of rules used to define and identify MIB variables. The rules are known as the Structure of M

Level Of Management Protocols - SNMP Tutorial

30.2 The Level Of Management Protocols Originally, many wide area networks included management protocols as part of their link level protocols. If a packet switch began misbehaving, the network manager could instruct a neighboring packet switch to se
