3. 3 Internet Network Management Also referred to as SNMP-based Network Management
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is often referred to as the Internet Network Management Framework which includes
management architecture
structure of management information
management protocol
plus related concepts...
Most widely used in computer communication networks
Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) is responsible for SNMP standardization
4. 4 Origins of Internet ARPANET (formed by US DoD, 1969) connecting four geographically separated computers in US
23 computers in ARPANET (1971)
Computers in UK and Norway were connected (1973)
TCP/IP protocol suite as ARPANET’s standard protocol (late 70’s)
TCP/IP as NFSNET’s standard protocol (1984)
Continued growth throughout the 80’s and 90’s
currently more than 40,000,000 nodes on the Internet
Need for the management of rapidly growing Internet!
5. 5 Origins of Internet NM Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP)
until late 70’s, e.g., Ping utility
Simple Gateway Monitoring Protocol (SGMP) - 1987
High-level Entity Management System (HEMS)
generalized version of Host Monitoring Protocol (HMP)
SNMP
enhanced version of SGMP
an interim solution
CMIP over TCP/IP (CMOT)
long-term solution
did not go very far
6. 6 Evolution of SNMP SNMPv1
draft came out in 1988 and became full Internet standard in 1990
most workstations, bridges, routers, switches and hubs are now equipped with SNMP agent
many resource MIBs (including systems & applications) have been defined
RMON (1995)
Remote Monitoring, extends the SNMPv1 MIB and functions
SNMPv2
attempted to improve the deficiencies of SNMPv1
Full Internet Standard
SNMPv3
internet drafts came out in Feb. 1998, adding security features
now a full Internet Standard
7. 7 IETF Standardization Process (RFC2026)http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2026.txt IETF forms a working group (WG) for a specific task
WG generates one or more internet drafts (ID)
ID document can follow one of three tracks
(1) standards track, (2) informational, (3) experimental
Internet documents are published as RFCs
Internet Proposed Standard
Internet Draft Standard
Internet Full Standard
Other status:
Obsolete: a document that is replaced by an updated version
Historic: a document that is retired
The latest status on IETF NM RFCs can be found from http://wwwsnmp.cs.utwente.nl/ietf/rfcs/rfcbystatus.html
8. 8 SNMP Protocol RFCs
9. 9 SNMPv1 Standards
10. 10 SNMP Full Standards
11. 11 SNMP NM Architecture The manager resides in Network Management Station (NMS) while the agent resides in the managed Network Node
The manager requests the agent to perform Set and Get operations on the variables in the Management information Base (MIB)
By means of traps the agent occasionally notifies the manager about some events related to network operation
