Network Management is about monitoring and managing multi-protocol networks using the SNMP Protocol. The workshop reviews the SNMP Protocol structure, Network management applications, and query agents. There will be a detailed discussion on identifying objects, MIBs and SNMP devices. WORKSHOP OBJECTIVES: You will understand the structure and operation of SNMP You will use SNMP to identify faulty devices You will use RMON to analyse remote network information You will interpret and explain MIB I and MIB II (Public/Private/Proprietary) You will track the important variables on your network You will install and configure a typical Network Management Package MORE INFORMATION: http://www.idc-online.com/content/snmp-network-management-essentials-27
