• SNMP standards are defined in a series of documents, called request for comments or
RFCs
• proposed by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF).

PDUs
SNMPv3 defines eight types of packets (or PDUs):
GetRequest, GetNextRequest, GetBulkRequest, SetRequest, Response, Trap,
InformRequest and Report.
GetRequest: it is sent from the manager (client) to the agent (server) to retrieve
the value of a variable or a set of variables.
GetNextRequest: it is sent from the manager (client) to the agent (server) to
retrieve the value of a variable. It is mostly used to retrieve the values of the
entries in a table.
GetBulkRequest: it is sent from the manager (client) to the agent (server) to
retrieve a large amount of data. It can be used instead of above two PDUs

SetRequest: it is sent from the manager (client) to the agent (server) to set (store)
a value in a variable.
Response: it is sent from an agent (server) to the manager (client) in response to
GetRequest or GetNextRequest. It contains the values of the variables
requested by manager.
Trap: the trap PDU is sent from the agent (server) to the manager (client) to
report an event, for example: if the agent is rebooted, it informs the manager
and reports the time of rebooting.
InformRequest: it is sent from one manager (client) to another remote manager
to get the value of some variables from agents under the control of the
remote manager. The remote manager responds with a Response PDU.
Report: the Report PDU is designed to report some types of errors between
managers. It is not yet in use.

Being the part of TCP⁄ IP protocol suite,
the SNMP messages are wrapped as User Datagram Protocol (UDP)
and intern wrapped and transmitted in the Internet Protocol.
The following diagram will illustrate the four–layer model developed
by Department of Defense (DoD).
