SNMP is an application-layer protocol that enables network-management systems to collect and modify management information (MIB variables) on routers, switches, servers, and other devices. It is used for monitoring status, gathering statistics, and (with appropriate permissions) changing configuration parameters. SNMP does not provide an interactive command-line session; secure remote shell access is provided by protocols such as SSH. File transfers are handled by protocols like TFTP or FTP, and VPN tunnels rely on technologies such as IPsec or SSL.
