SNMP Jobs

You can define the following types of SNMP jobs:

Simple Network Management Protocol Value Get (SNMPGET)
Simple Network Management Protocol Value Set (SNMPSET)

The SNMP Value Get job queries a network device for the value of a variable that is assigned to a Management Information Base (MIB) address. You can use the SNMP Value Get job to retrieve information about a network device to determine whether an administrator is required to be notified.

The SNMP Value Set job modifies a variable on a network device. The variable is assigned to the MIB address that you specify. You can use the SNMP Value Set job to update a variable that reports on the failure or success of a mission-critical policy.

Note: To run these jobs, your system requires CA WA Agent for UNIX, Linux, or Windows.
