SNMP Community String In SNMP, a community is a group of stations with the same access permission. Each SNMP request packet includes a community name or string. When a request packet is received, the remote access server looks for the name in its community table. If the name is not found, the request is denied and an error is returned. If the name is found, the associated access level is checked and the request is accepted if the access level is high enough for the request.
Event Network message indicating operational irregularities in physical elements of a network or a response to the occurrence of a significant task, typically the completion of a request for information.
IETF Internet Engineering Task Force. A large, open international community of network designers, operators, vendors, and researchers concerned with the evolution of the Internet architecture and the smooth operation of the Internet. The IETF is responsible for collecting and advertising internetworking Requests for Comment (RFC), and for formalizing internetworking standards.
MIB Management Information Base. A set of defined variables that are accessed through the Simple Network Management Protocol.
NMS Network Management System. System responsible for managing at least part of a network. An NMS is generally a reasonably powerful and well-equipped computer such as an engineering workstation. NMSs communicate with agents to help keep track of network statistics and resources.
OID Object Identifier. Identifies network objects such as routers or transmission equipment.
SMI Structure of Management Information. Provides a framework to show how MIB objects are managed, including how they are named, grouped, operations that they are allowed to perform, permitted data types, and syntax information.
SMTP Simple Mail Transfer Protocol. A protocol that regulates what goes on between the mail servers.
SNMP Simple Network Management Protocol. Defined in IETF RFC-1157, based on the client-server model and implemented over User Datagram Protocol, SNMP enables network managers to remotely monitor and control the evolution of network objects.
Trap Message sent by an SNMP agent to an NMS, console, or terminal to indicate the occurrence of a significant event, such as a specifically defined condition or a threshold that was reached.
Varbind A varbind consists of an ASN.1 object identifier and a value. There is no specific relationship between the object identifier and value contained within a varbind.
