              A Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)


1.  Status of this Memo

   This RFC is a re-release of RFC 1098, with a changed "Status of this
   Memo" section plus a few minor typographical corrections.  This memo
   defines a simple protocol by which management information for a
   network element may be inspected or altered by logically remote
   users.  In particular, together with its companion memos which
   describe the structure of management information along with the
   management information base, these documents provide a simple,
   workable architecture and system for managing TCP/IP-based internets
   and in particular the Internet.

   The Internet Activities Board recommends that all IP and TCP
   implementations be network manageable.  This implies implementation
   of the Internet MIB (RFC-1156) and at least one of the two
   recommended management protocols SNMP (RFC-1157) or CMOT (RFC-1095).
   It should be noted that, at this time, SNMP is a full Internet
   standard and CMOT is a draft standard.  See also the Host and Gateway
   Requirements RFCs for more specific information on the applicability
   of this standard.

   Please refer to the latest edition of the "IAB Official Protocol
   Standards" RFC for current information on the state and status of
   standard Internet protocols.

   Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
