WebNMS SNMP API .NET Edition is a .NET-based comprehensive
development environment for building SNMP-based management applications
that are reliable and scalable.
WebNMS SNMP API enables rapid building and deployment of SNMP-based
integrated network management solutions. It simplifies application
design and development.
The WebNMS SNMP stack comprises a set of powerful .NET SNMP
library to build SNMP-based real-time applications for monitoring
and managing network devices. SNMP network management developers
can leverage the SNMP library to build standalone and web-based
applications. It supports SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c.
The .NET SNMP library provides off-the-rack components for trap
and table handling and the basic SNMP operations: SNMP GET, SNMP
GETNEXT, SNMP GETBULK, and SNMP SET. These components enable simpler
and faster development and deployment of SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c management
applications that can be integrated into any network management
solution.
WebNMS SNMP API can be used to build either a two-tier or a
three-tier management application. In the two-tier architecture,
the management application directly communicates with the agents.
In the three-tier architecture, the management application communicates
with the agents through a manager-server. For building highly scalable
management applications, three-tier architecture is the best option
Features and Benefits
Features
Benefits
Open Standards
Built on Internet standard technologies, such as .NET, it
ensures greater productivity.
Multilingual support

Robust MIB Parser: Supports SMIv1 and SMIv2 formats
Seamlessly parses the MIB definitions from any
OEM vendor. Offers various modes of parsing based on the MIB
definitions.
SNMP Broadcasting
Broadcasts SNMP packets across the network to
auto-discover SNMP devices in the network.
Command Line Utilities
Perform SNMP operations such as, SNMP GET, SNMP
GETNEXT, SNMP SET, SNMP BULK, SNMP WALK, etc. on remote agents.
Standards compliant
Conforms to standard SNMP RFC specifications,
Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1 rules), and Basic Encoding
Rules (BER).
WebNMS SNMP API Architecture
WebNMS SNMP API consists of a hierarchy of .NET packages that
enables rapid development of element and network management applications
for a wide variety of domains.
It is built upon a layered architecture, which contains the SNMP
Package and the Transport Provider Framework, and the MIBs API.
SNMP Core
The SNMP Core implements the core functions of the protocol. It includes classes that facilitate communication with peer
SNMP entities and supports multilingual communication with devices.
The Transport Provider Framework provides the flexibility of plugging-in different protocols, such as TCP, UDP, or Custom-built protocols.
MIBs API
The MIBs API conveys the information about the data available on an SNMP agent. This API allows .NET programs to take full advantage of the information contained in MIB module files.
It also facilitates loading and unloading of MIBs in applications,
in addition to supporting a host of functions that provide the properties of the managed object.
The components are built using the variable support functions provided by the SNMP Core.
