1. Overview
This document describes five types of SNMP applications:
- Applications which initiate SNMP Get, GetNext, GetBulk, and/or
Set requests, called 'command generators.'
- Applications which respond to SNMP Get, GetNext, GetBulk,
and/or Set requests, called 'command responders.'
- Applications which generate notifications, called
'notification originators.'
- Applications which receive notifications, called 'notification
receivers.'
- Applications which forward SNMP Get, GetNext, GetBulk, and/or
Set requests or notifications, called 'proxy forwarder.'
