ITPEC FE Subject A October 2024 — Question 25 of 60
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) — protocol for gathering info from network devices to manage and troubleshoot the network.
- •SNMP uses agents on devices and a manager to collect data (CPU load, traffic, errors)
- •Operates on UDP ports 161/162
Why not others:
- (a) NTP — time synchronization protocol
- (b) SMTP — email sending protocol
- (d) TELNET — remote CLI access (unencrypted)
Key rule: "gather information on network components to manage" = SNMP.
