# The net/net-snmp,-main port

## net-snmp-5.8 – extendable SNMP implementation

## Description

    Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a widely used protocol for
    monitoring health and statistics of many types of equipment (e.g. routers,
    computers, printers, power systems, environmental monitors, etc).
    Net-SNMP provides a library, daemons and utilities:

    - snmpd responds to SNMP queries. It has built-in support for a wide
    range of information, and can be extended. Not to be confused with the
    SNMP daemon in the OpenBSD base OS which is recommended in most cases.
    Manuals are netsnmp-snmpd(8) and netsnmp-snmpd.conf(5) to avoid conflict.

    - snmptrapd receives notifications from devices (TRAP and INFORM).
    It can log, run external handlers, or forward over the network.

    - tools for standard queries (snmpget*, snmpwalk, snmpbulk*), writes
    (snmpset), and sending notifications (snmpinform, snmptrap).

    - tools with special output types; snmpdelta displays differences over
    time, snmptable collates information from SNMP tables (e.g. ifTable),
    and there are single-purpose tools like snmpstatus, snmpdf, snmpps,
    snmptop, snmpnetstat.

    - snmptransate converts between numerical and textual forms of MIB OIDs,
    and displays MIB content and structure>

    Flavor:
    	readonly - removes all SET support from the code.
