Networking Functions

An SNMP-managed network consists of three key components:

   1. Managed devices

   2. Agents

   3. Network Management Systems (NMSs)

A managed device is a network node that contains an SNMP agent and 

that resides on a managed network. Managed devices collect and store 

management information and make this information available to NMSs 

using SNMP. Managed devices, sometimes called network elements, can 

be any type of network based device including this PDU.
The agent running in this PDU has local knowledge of measurement 

information and translates that information into a form compatible with 

SNMP.
An Network Manager system executes applications that monitor and con-

trol managed devices. One or more NMSs may exist on any managed 

network.
The model on the following page illustrates the basic elements of an 

SNMP-managed network.
