An SNMP Agent for the Microchip TCP/IP Stack On GlobalSpec

From Microchip Technology, Inc.

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an Internet protocol that was originally designed to manage different network devices, such as file servers, hubs, routers and so on. It can also be used to manage and control an ever increasing number of small embedded systems connected to one another over any IP network. Systems can communicate with each other using SNMP to transfer control and status information, creating a truly distributed system. Unlike more familiar human-oriented protocols like HTTP, SNMP is considered a machine-to-machine protocol.
