Getting Started with the Java Dynamic Management Kit 4.1

SNMP Manager API

The SNMP manager API is a set of Java classes that simplify the development of applications for managing SNMP agents. The agents may be developed using the Java Dynamic Management Kit 4.1, or by other means. The javax.management.snmp.manager package contains the classes and interfaces which make up the main components and functions of the API.

The Java Dynamic Management Kit 4.1 also provides an example program, showing how an SNMP proxy is used to allow a manager to access two MIBs (one local and one remote) through a single proxy agent The source code for the proxy object and the sample application is available in the Snmp/Proxy example directory located in the main examplesDir.

For more information regarding the SNMP toolkit, refer to the Java Dynamic Management Kit 4.1 Tools Reference, Java Dynamic Management Kit 4.1 Tutorial and Java Management Extensions Instrumentation and Agent Specification, v1.0 documents.
