| Introduction: |
| |
SNMP is a widely used protocol that facilitates the management of networked devices from a central
location. Originally intended only for the management of network devices such as routers and switches, its usage
has grown rapidly to encompass the monitoring of nearly any electronic device one can think of. SNMP is now used
to monitor and manage television broadcast studios, automated fare collection systems, airborne military platforms,
energy distribution systems, emergency radio networks, and much more.
The first of our series of three courses on SNMP, it is followed by a course that deals with the security and other
enhancements embodied in SNMPv3, the latest version of this protocol. Our final course on SNMP is aimed at the
software developers responsible for programming SNMP agents for deployed devices.
This course employs highly interactive lecture combined with hands-on exercises to help you effectively acquire
the necessary knowledge and skills and apply them to real-life situations. |

| Audience: |
| |
| IT professionals, engineers, tech and customer support representatives, marketing and sales
personnel and others responsible for SNMP deployment and management, MIB and agent development, and SNMP sales
and support. |

| Customize it: |
| |
| This 3-4-day SNMPv3 course will be customized to your needs and specifications. Eno.com will
assist you in identifying those needs and specifications. A word to the wise, there are many vendors of wireless
training. They will typically have a broad and general course, one size fits all, already developed and just put
your organization’s name on the title slide. This minimizes their effort and time investment. At Eno.com, every
course is made to your exact and exacting specifications. We help you ensure what you are getting is what you really
need even if at the beginning you weren’t too sure of what that was. We fit the class to your needs. We never fit
you into our “standard”, one size fits all, class. |
