Overview
A Superior SNMP .NET Class Library
Simple Network Management Protocol components seamlessly integrate threaded communications, security, and encoding/decoding so you can quickly develop custom SNMP applications. This development tool requires fewer resources, provides more flexibility, and elicits code that is easy to re-use and maintain. See our Programming Primer for detailed instructions.
Why buy an SNMP component when Open Source C# libraries are just a click away (#SNMP and SNMP Sharp Net)?
- Open Source documentation and sample projects are very limited, so SNMP novices need not apply
- they are not organized as agent and manager classes, so you have to figure out how to put the pieces together
- advanced features like MIB parsing and SNMPv3 engine caching are missing
- why risk the success of your project on "free" software that's likely to cost you days of research, excessive code writing and unnecessary testing?
Consulting and Custom Development
From MIB creation to complete SNMP systems, let our experienced staff help with your SNMP project.
Manage network devices and remote information
- Manager component receives and decodes Trap and Inform messages
- Enhanced with .NET 4.5 asynchronous task support for requesting and retrieving management information from Agents
- Superior scaling in high-throughput environments
- Discover agents and query their information base (variables)
- Get an entire table with a single method (supports sparse tables)
- Communicate with agents in parallel (on multiple threads) or serially (on a single thread)
- Send Inform messages to other managers
Respond to SNMP requests and send notifications
- Agent component receives, decodes and responds to Get, GetBulk, Set requests
- Create and send Trap and Inform messages
- Create default responses from requests or build your own
- Automatically updates agent variables and tables
Use standard and custom MIBs
- Load and parse MIB files at design-time or run-time
- MibNode definitions use OIDs to associate MIB file definitions with variable IIDs found in PDUs
- Intrinsic support provided for standard SNMPv2 SMI MIBs
- TreeView can be populated with parsed MIBs for easy viewing
Comprehensive Security
- NEW! Support for DTLS using RSA and DSA certificates
- Security class provides seamless SNMPv3 integration
- MD5, SHA authentication support
- DES, Triple DES, AES128, AES192, AES256 encryption support
Interoperability
- Compatible with CISCO, MG-Soft , NET-SNMP and other SNMP software
- Compatible with FIPS 140-2 standards
- Complies with SNMP RFCs for version 1 (1155, 1156, 1157, 1212, 1213, 1215, 2863, 3418), version 2 (1901, 1907, 1908, 3416, 3417), and version 3 (3410, 3411, 3412, 3413, 3414, 3415, 3416, 3417, 3418, 3584, 3826, 5343)
