Jefferis IIILect 10 - 18 SNMP/SNMPv2 Simple Network Management Protocol –network monitoring –network management Basic actions –Get (request named objects - various datatypes) –Set (request alteration of named objects) –Notify (inform request) –Uses UDP for communications

19. 9/15/2015© 2008 Raymond P. Jefferis IIILect 10 - 19 SNMP Network Components Management stations –restricted access –inspect, display, and alter network data Managed nodes –routers, gateways, bridges, switches, hubs, etc. –computers, printers, etc.

20. 9/15/2015© 2008 Raymond P. Jefferis IIILect 10 - 20 SNMP Management Objectives Fault detection Equipment configuration Gathering statistics –for accounting purposes –for diagnostic purposes Network security

21. 9/15/2015© 2008 Raymond P. Jefferis IIILect 10 - 21 SNMP Model Objects –written in ASN.1 syntax –defined in Management Information Base (MIB) - many types of objects pre-defined Agents –programs in managed nodes –supply requested information –alter information when requested

22. 9/15/2015© 2008 Raymond P. Jefferis IIILect 10 - 22 ASN.1 Data types in SNMP INTEGER Type code = 2 BIT STRING Type code = 3 OCTET STRING Type code = 4 NULL Type code = 5 OBJECT IDENTIFIERType code = 6 Syntax in use: identifier type ::= value or (range) or {id n (val n ),...}

23. 9/15/2015© 2008 Raymond P. Jefferis IIILect 10 - 23 SNMP Data Transfer Format Header byte –tag (2 bits) –tag extension (1 bit) –type code (5 bits) Length [bytes] Data bytes

24. 9/15/2015© 2008 Raymond P. Jefferis IIILect 10 - 24 Basic SNMP Objects System - equipment description Interfaces - with logged traffic AT - address translation IP - packet statistics ICMP - message statistics

25. Basic SNMP Objects (Cont’d) TCP - methods, parameters, statistics UDP - statistics EGP - gateway protocol statistics Transmission - media-specific SNMP - management traffic statistics 9/15/2015© 2008 Raymond P. Jefferis IIILect 10 - 25

26. 9/15/2015© 2008 Raymond P. Jefferis IIILect 10 - 26 SNMP Message Types (0)GetRequest - get variables (1)GetNextRequest - get next variable (2)GetResponse- get data (3)SetRequest - modify variable (4)Trap - agent trap message

27. 9/15/2015© 2008 Raymond P. Jefferis IIILect 10 - 27 SMTP Simple Mail Transfer Protocol Sent and received via Port 25 using TCP Envelope –list of recipients Body –message to be sent (7-bit ASCII) Outgoing messages are queued

28. 9/15/2015© 2008 Raymond P. Jefferis IIILect 10 - 28 SMTP Header TO:address FROM: (REPLY TO:)address CC:address SUBJECT:text DATE:date ENCRYPTED:pointer

29. 9/15/2015© 2008 Raymond P. Jefferis IIILect 10 - 29 Some SMTP Commands HELO (send ID - sent by client) MAIL FROM (identify originator) RCPT TO (identify recipient) DATA (transfer message text) QUIT (close TCP connection) (See text, p660 for example)

30. 9/15/2015© 2008 Raymond P. Jefferis IIILect 10 - 30 Some SMTP Replies 220“ready” - returned by server 221“destination closing” 250“okay” - transfer complete 345“ready for mail” - start 421“mail service unavailable” 550“mailbox not found” 554“mail transaction failed”

31. 9/15/2015© 2008 Raymond P. Jefferis IIILect 10 - 31 DNS To locate addresses in network domains Each host has resource records of format: –DomainName –TimeToLive [seconds] –Class (IN for internet) –Type (see table) –Value (data type depends on Type field)

32. 9/15/2015© 2008 Raymond P. Jefferis IIILect 10 - 32 DNS (continued) Database is distributed and hierarchical Names that cannot be resolved in the host are referred up the hierarchy of name servers

33. Name Servers (Continued) There is usually a specified name server for a network configuration A backup (second) name server is usually specified UDP protocol is used for name server queries and responses 9/15/2015© 2008 Raymond P. Jefferis IIILect 10 - 33
