SNMP

The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) allows a network administrator to monitor a network by retrieving settings on

remote network devices. To do this, the administrator typically runs an SNMP management station program such as MIB browser

on a local host to obtain information from the SNMP agent, in this case the NF1ADV

(if SNMP is enabled). An SNMP ‘community’

performs the function of authenticating SNMP traffic. A ‘community name’ acts as a password that is typically shared among SN

MP

agents and managers.
