Appendix C: SNMP

Using SNMP Version 1, the network manager can issue three types of com- mands:

GetRequest: This command retrieves a single item or the first in a series from a network device.

GetNextRequest: This command retrieves the next item in a series from a network device.

SetRequest: This command writes information to a network device. The network device issues two types of messages:

GetResponse: This message is the response to a network manager GetRe- quest or GetNextRequest command.

Trap: This is an unsolicited message issued by a network device to report an operational anomaly or an alarm condition to the network manager.

These messages are typically encased within informational packets and trans- ported over the LAN or WAN.
