The following gure shows an example of SNMP operations using an SNMP manager.
SNMP Agent overview
The SNMP Agent is mounted on a managed device (such as a hard disk) in the network. It
collects error information, the usage condition, and other information about the device,
and forwards the information to the SNMP Manager.
The SNMP Agent reports disk storage system failures to the manager using the SNMP
trap function.
SNMP traps
An SNMP Agent reports storage system errors to the SNMP Manager using the SNMP
trap function.
When an error occurs, the SNMP Agent issues an SNMP trap to the SNMP Manager that
includes the product number, nickname, reference code, and an identier of the
component.
