A network protocol known as the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is generally used to communicate between network management stations and the devices they manage. SNMP was originally developed for controlling the devices that made up the infrastructure of the Internet, and has become the primary standard for network management. SNMP commonly runs "on top of" the TCP/IP Internet Protocol, though other transmission methods are possible. Because a network management station can be used to manage a wide range of devices, network management software is generally divided into two different parts: a base platform consisting of software common to the management of all devices; and a set of modules, each of which can communicate with a narrow range of devices by way of their SNMP-based agents. If a new device type is added to the network, then a new module (compatible with the particular platform being used) needs to be added to facilitate its management. This manual describes the module used on the D-View5.1 platform for controlling DES-3226 intelligent Gigabit Ethernet switches. 4 Introduction
