SNMP
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is actually a set of protocols 
for managing complex networks. SNMP works by sending messages to differ-
ent parts of a network. SNMP-compliant devices, called agents, store data 
about themselves in Management Information Bases (MIBs) and return this 
data to the SNMP requesters.
TCP/IP
Most networks combine TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) with the 
lower-level protocol IP (Internet Protocol). TCP establishes a virtual connec-
tion between two host systems and guarantees the delivery of data between 
them while IP specifies the format and addressing of this data sent between 
these two host systems.
