SNMP v3 survival guide : practical strategies for integrated network management

SNMP's creator explains how v3 works and how, why and when to upgrade for enterprise network performance in this Networking Council book.

Using the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), network managers can remotely monitor and troubleshoot all subnets within a network.

Written by SNMP's originator (a-k-a "Dr. SNMP"), this book provides network managers, developers and hardware manufacturers with the strategic know-how to design and deploy SMNPv3-based management systems, whether large or small.

It also provides insights and advice from pilot implementations on how and when to upgrade to version 3, managing policy, developing custom MIBs and data services, and positioning for the future
