SNMP is a protocol that operates at the Application layer of the OSI reference model and enables the exchange of management information between various networking devices. It has the following advantages:

Simple design

SNMP implementation implementation in any large scale network can be performed quiqly quickly and easily.

Scalability

It is very easy to extend its capabilities and include new information in its structure in order to support any type of device.

...

Enable/disable SNMP v.1 and v.2c support. The first version of the SNMP protocol lacks security in the operation of the protocol itself, which hinders its use for network management, so SNMP v.1 and v.2c always works only in read-only mode. By default, it is enabled.

...

In "SNMP Traps" section is possible to enable/disable to send "SNMP traps", to set the IP address of the device which sends traps; normally it is normally the IP address of the InfiNet Wireless unit. To select traps or trap groups to be sent to the server is enough to mark the check boxes. The traps available to mark depend on the product family, full list of possible values are below:

The MIB structure and object identifiers for the InfiNet Wireless units can be obtained from ftp://ftp.infinet.ru/pub/Firmware/MIBS.  This ensures the Integration of the InfiNet units in any monitoring system (for example a NMS may already exist and include all other network devices owned by a company).
