1.1.3 The Role of the SNMP Manager

The SNMP manager is the management application that monitors and/or administers a remote system. The SNMP manager does the following:

• Receives and displays traps
• Sends SNMP "gets" and "sets" to the SNMP agent
• Provides a user interface.

A single SNMP manager can support multiple SNMP agents. For a fully supported network management application, you must use a third-party product such as HP OpenView* or any other SNMP-compliant network management application.
