Chapter 7 Management Tab SNMP Agent You can get the traffic information and transmit condition by using the SNMP Agent function. Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an application layer protocol that facilitates the exchange of management information between network devices. Main functions of SNMP include monitoring network performance, detecting and analyzing network error, configuring network devices, and so on. Under the circumstance of network working normally, SNMP can play a part in statistics, configuration and testing. When networks have troubles, SNMP can detect and restore these troubles. Configuring this device as SNMP Agent, it can receive and process the management message from the network management system.
