SNMP Overview

The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an application-level protocol used in network management to gather information from network devices. Each GranDSLAM 4200 runs an SNMP agent that collects data. The network management station can exercise all the management functions remotely from the Network Operations Center (NOC).

Traps Overview

Traps inform the NMS of an alert occurring in the system (e.g., threshold exceeded). Traps are sent at the start and completion of a test or alarm condition. Traps are configured via a Telnet session, terminal session, or via SNMP, and are based on community names. Traps are included in the MIB II, Entity, and GranDSLAM 4200 Enterprise MIB definitions. MIBs can be accessed through the Paradyne Web site at www.paradyne.com. Select Technical Support Online Support MIBS.
