ZyWALL 2 Series User’s Guide

•Get - Allows the manager to retrieve an object variable from the agent.

•GetNext - Allows the manager to retrieve the next object variable from a table or list within an agent. In SNMPv1, when a manager wants to retrieve all elements of a table from an agent, it initiates a Get operation, followed by a series of GetNext operations.

•Set - Allows the manager to set values for object variables within an agent.

•Trap - Used by the agent to inform the manager of some events.
