● GETBULK (available as of SNMPv2)
Requests multiple data records at one time, for example several rows of a table.
● SET

The SNMP agent sends data packets of the following type:
● RESPONSE
The agent returns the data requested by the manager.
● TRAP
If a certain event occurs, the SNMP agent itself sends traps.
SNMPv1/v2/v3 use UDP (User Datagram Protocol) and use the UDP ports 161 and 162. The
data is described in a Management Information Base (MIB).
Compared with the previous versions SNMPv1 and SNMPv2. SNMPv3 introduces an
extensive security concept.
SNMPv3 supports:
● Fully encrypted user authentication
● Encryption of the entire data traffic
● Access control of the MIB objects at the user/group level
