SNMP Configuration Overview

Managers and Agents

SNMP uses software entities called managers and agents to manage network devices:

The manager monitors and controls all other SNMP-managed devices or network nodes on the network. There must be at least one SNMP Manager in a managed network. The manager is installed on a workstation located on the network.

An agent resides in a managed device or network node. The agent receives instructions from the SNMP Manager, and also sends management information back to the SNMP Manager as events occur. The agent can reside on:

•Routers

•Bridges

•Hubs

•Workstations

•Printers

or other network devices.

There are many SNMP management applications, but all these applications perform the same basic task. They allow SNMP managers to communicate with agents to get statistics and receive alerts from the network devices. You can use any SNMP- compatible network management system to monitor and control an Avaya P460.

Manager/Agent Communication

There are several ways that the SNMP manager and the agent communicate. The manager can:

•Retrieve a value – a get action

The SNMP manager requests information from the agent, such as the number of users logged on to the agent device, or the status of a critical process on that device. The agent gets the value of the requested MIB variable and sends the value back to the manager.

•Retrieve the value immediately after the variable you name – a get-nextaction). The SNMP manager retrieves values from within a MIB. Using the get-next
