SNMP polling overview
After the initial discovery and modeling of
the MPLS and VPN topology objects, updates the status of the
objects by continuously monitoring the devices through SNMP polling. The results of the polling, in addition to the status updates that are received from
IP Availability Manager
, serve as input to the correlation analysis.For SNMP polling, uses an IPv4 SNMP poller, which sends SNMPv1, v2c, or v3 messages
for use with IP version 4. MPLS Manager authentication and privacy protocol support for SNMPv3 identifies the authentication and
privacy protocol support for SNMPv3.
