Basic Dial NMS Implementation Guide

Task 2 Exploring SNMP Capabilities by Using

UCD-SNMP

About Using UCD-SNMP

Researching and identifying which functions are available in SNMP are part of building a dial NMS

environment. In this case study, UCD-SNMP, an opensource freeware application that allows access to

SNMP functions from a command line interface (CLI), is used to explore the capabilities of SNMP.

There are many benefits to using UCD-SNMP.

You can:



Gain a fundamental understanding of how SNMP functions and protocols work in a dial access

environment. This knowledge provides a solid foundation for using automated and GUI-based

SNMP applications.



Learn how to use a low-level troubleshooting capability in the event that other SNMP applications

produce questionable results.



Poll any OID and verify SNMP agent responses.



Use stable and reliable CLI commands. UCD-SNMP is unobstructed by GUI functionality.



Explore and research MIB content.



Discover what functions are available to manage a Cisco IOS device.



Create customized scripts and tools.

For this case study, the dial engineers at THEnet created a tool called SNMP Commander. The tool

aided the MIB research task by enabling dial engineers to build web-based object identification (OIDs)

bookmarks, which they could go to without using a keyboard.

By using UCD-SNMP and SNMP Commander, the dial engineers at THEnet identified which items the

commercial NMS applications would monitor within the network operations center (NOC).
