Operations and Management
The SNMP Management Framework presently consists of five major
components:
An overall architecture, described in RFC 2571
.
Mechanisms for describing and naming objects and events for
the purpose of management. The first version of this Structure
of Management Information (SMI) is called SMIv1 and described
in STD 16, RFC 1155 , STD 16, RFC
1212 and RFC 1215 . The second version, called SMIv2, is
described in STD 58, RFC 2578 ,
STD 58, RFC 2579 and STD 58, RFC
2580 .
Message protocols for transferring management information. The
first version of the SNMP message protocol is called SNMPv1
and described in STD 15, RFC 1157 .
A second version of the SNMP message protocol, which is not an
Internet standards track protocol, is called SNMPv2c and
described in RFC 1901 and RFC
1906 . The third version of the
message protocol is called SNMPv3 and described in RFC 1906
, RFC 2572
and RFC 2574
.
Protocol operations for accessing management information. The
first set of protocol operations and associated PDU formats is
described in STD 15, RFC 1157 . A
second set of protocol operations and associated PDU formats
is described in RFC 1905 .
A set of fundamental applications described in RFC 2573 and the view-based access control
mechanism described in RFC 2575 .
A more detailed introduction to the current SNMP Management Framework
can be found in RFC 2570 .
Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed
the Management Information Base or MIB. Objects in the MIB are
defined using the mechanisms defined in the SMI.
This memo specifies a MIB module that is compliant to the SMIv2. A
MIB conforming to the SMIv1 can be produced through the appropriate
translations. The resulting translated MIB must be semantically
equivalent, except where objects or events are omitted because no
translation is possible (use of Counter64). Some machine readable
information in SMIv2 will be converted into textual descriptions in
SMIv1 during the translation process. However, this loss of machine
readable information is not considered to change the semantics of the
MIB.
