About:
Net-SNMP is a suite of applications used to implement SNMP v1, v2c, and v3, along with a library for developers. It provides command-line tools and a daemon (snmpd) for monitoring and managing network devices via IPv4 and IPv6. Its primary value is enabling robust system telemetry and remote configuration capabilities.
Key Features:
  • Full SNMP v1/v2c/v3 protocol support
  • Extensible agent and MIB compiler
  • IPv4 and IPv6 network support
  • Comprehensive command-line utilities
Use Cases:
  • Monitoring server health metrics (CPU, memory, disk)
  • Network device management and configuration
  • Automated infrastructure data collection
Alternatives:
  • snmp++ – C++ library focused on SNMP API implementation rather than a full suite.
  • OpenNMS – A larger network management platform that often uses SNMP as a data source.
