1.5.2. SNMP Support
SNMP is used to communicate with any device that supports SNMP. For all other devices, a
proxy is used to translate between the proprietary communication protocol and SNMP.
The following list describes the advantages of the SNMP Protocol:
• Control over distributed devices
• Most used protocol in the world
• Allows quick changes and upgrades
• Allows using standard devices for diagnostics
• Allows external applications to communicate with our Mgt system
All Communication between the different entities of the NMS-4000 is via SNMP (Central
Management, Remote Management, etc…)
Figure 1-12 illustrates the SNMP Communication between the different entities of the
NMS-4000.
