This practical guide introduces the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) for experienced network and system administrators. Starting with the basics of SNMP and how it works, "Essential SNMP" supplies the technical background for using it effectively. The book covers OIDs, MIBs, community strings, traps, and other technical elements. But the main focus is on practical network administration. Readers will come away with ideas for writing scripts to help them manage their networks, create managed objects, and extend the operation of SNMP agents. This update features expanded information on version 2 of the protocol.
