SNMP

SNMP, Simple Network Management Protocol, is the Internet's standard for remote monitoring and management of hosts, routers and other nodes and devices on a network. Double-Take Availability provides an SNMP sub-agent that can be managed from an SNMP Management Console.

Double-Take Availability installs two components to work with SNMP.

• The sub-agent is a program that installs and runs on the same machine as Double-Take Availability and gathers statistics, data, and traps. The sub-agent forwards the information to the SNMP agent, which relays the information to the manager. The Double-Take Availability SNMP sub-agent is included in the Double-Take Availability installation program.
• A Double-Take Availability MIB file is placed on the administrator’s machine so that the Management Console can interpret the data sent from the sub-agent. The Double-Take Availability .mib file is dt.mib and meets SNMP standards.
