SNMP stands for Simple Network Management Protocol. For SNMP to work, the devices must be equipped with SNMP agents. Operating systems may also have SNMP agents. SNMP messages may be initiated by the network devices or the NMS. SNMP uses MIB (Management Information Base) for collection of information between the NMS and Network elements. http://www.snmp.com/FAQs/snmp-faq-part1.txt
