Description
This course introduces the fundamentals of Network Management, Network Monitoring, SNMP, SNMPv2, SNMPv3 and RMON 1, and RMON 2 This course details the technology fundamentals of SNMP, SNMPv2, SNMPv3, and RMON 1 and 2 by explaining what's behind this family of popular networking standards. The course begins with some theory about what tasks network administrators need to do, i.e. monitoring performance, faults, and accounting, along with configuration and security control and the SNMP background.
Course Objectives
The course details how an SNMP Management Information Base (MIB), which stores network information, is organized and also how the protocol works to collect and store network information. The RMON standard uses SNMP with its own MIB format to collect statistics about a network. The detailed descriptions on this information, along with RMON filters and alarms, which can be used to troubleshoot a network is provided. RMONv2 allows network administration of more kinds of networks and devices. SNMPv2 provides enhanced administration capabilities, while SNMPv3 adds the security and encryption that was lacking in earlier versions of the protocol.
Who Should Attend
Participants should include all R&D and product managers, market planner, salespeople, and developers involved with managing, marketing, selling, or developing SNMP products and network management who seek a broad understanding of current SNMP approaches and evolving directions for the next generation of SNMP (SNMPv3).
