Explanation
SNMP is a protocol used for network management. It enables network devices such as routers, switches, and servers to send performance data, statistics, and alerts to a network management system (NMS). SNMP allows administrators to monitor and manage network performance, detect faults, and sometimes configure devices remotely. The data is collected in the form of variables that can be queried or monitored by the NMS.
