An efficient administration of LANs, routers, and other network components is not possible without powerful management tools. With the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), a de-facto standard has been able to establish itself for management communication in heterogeneous networks. The SNMP-capability of the corresponding network products is no longer being explicitly asked for by the user today. Rather, it is taken to be a standard feature. The aim of the course is to impart a well-based and directly applicable know-how on network management with SNMP. The knowledge acquired is necessary for the evaluation and selection of specific network management systems.
