Explanation

SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is used for managing and monitoring network TCP/IP Protocol Stack Layers: Application Layer: Protocols that provide services directly to end users or applications (e.g., HTTP, FTP, SMTP). Transport Layer: Protocols that ensure reliable data transfer (e.g., TCP, UDP). Network Layer: Protocols that handle packet routing (e.g., IP). Control Layer: Not a recognized layer in the TCP/IP model. SNMP operates at the Application Layer of the TCP/IP protocol stack. It uses UDP (User Datagram Protocol) as its transport protocol but resides at the application layer. SNMP is an application-layer protocol designed for network management tasks. Thus, the correct answer is A.
