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 provides an
SNMP sub-agent that can be managed from an SNMP Management
Console.
Double-Take installs two components to work with SNMP.
- The sub-agent is a program that installs and runs on the same machine as Double-Take 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 SNMP sub-agent is included in the
Double-Take installation program.
- A Double-Take 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 .mib file is dt.mib and
meets SNMP standards.
