Simple Network Management Protocol

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a client-server protocol used to monitor and manage networks remotely. This protocol relies upon UDP for transport, and is well supported by most manufacturers. Many use SNMP combined with a web interface to allow remote adminstration of their equipment, such as HP's TopTools, Cisco's CiscoWorks etc.
