User Guide: SNMP plug-in version 2.8.0 for VST-APL

# Welcome to the SNMP plug-in for VST-APL User Guide

The SNMP plug-in provides a dashboard page that displays an overview of SNMP network management status. It allows you to auto-discover SNMP devices using ICMP broadcast, ICMP sequential, or specified IP address discovery. The log page displays status changes, SNMP traps, systems notifications, and other messages. Using the device and physical port views, you can display devices and ports in a tree or list format, with additional detailed information for devices.

SNMP is available as an optional plug-in for Vista Manager running on a Vista Manager Network Appliance.
