SNMP conguration
This section explains how to use the SNMP on the network camera. The
Simple Network Management Protocol is an application layer protocol that
facilitates the exchange of management information between network devices.
It helps network administrators to remotely manage network devices and nd,
solve network problems with ease.
The SNMP consists of the following three key components:
1. Manager: Network-Management Station (NMS), a server which executes
applications that monitor and control managed devices.
2. Agent: A network-management software module on a managed device
which transfers the status of managed devices to the NMS.
3. Managed device: A network node on a managed network. For example:
routers, switches, bridges, hubs, computer hosts, printers, IP telephones,
network cameras, web server, and database.
