AdventNet SNMP API 4

AdventNet SNMP API Overview

AdventNet SNMP API offers a comprehensive development toolkit for SNMP-based network management applications. AdventNet's SNMP stack comprises a set of powerful Java SNMP library to build real-time applications for monitoring and tracking network elements that are reliable, scalable, and OS independent.

Developers can leverage AdventNet's SNMP library to build standalone, web-based, and distributed (EJB, CORBA, or RMI) SNMP-based network management applications. The Java SNMP library provides off-the-shelf components for trap and table handling along with basic SNMP operations, such as SNMP GET, SNMP GETNEXT, SNMP GETBULK, and SNMP SET. These components enable simple and rapid development and deployment of SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, and SNMPv3 management applications.

The SNMP management application (manager) built using the Java-based SNMP API can receive SNMP traps, which can be processed based on predefined criteria for effective SNMP management.
