SNMP
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a set of network protocols designed to allow you to

•
Enable SNMPv3 to create an encrypted channel for secure printer management.
•
Assign privacy, authentication protocols, and keys to Administrative and key user accounts.
•
Assign read and write access to User accounts.
•
Limit SNMP access to the printer using hosts.

SNMP version 1 (SNMPv1) is the initial implementation of the SNMP protocol. SNMPv1 operates over

communications over SNMPv1, however it uses the simple-community based security scheme of
SNMPv1.
