Description:

SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is a protocol used for
network management (hence the name). The UCD-SNMP project includes
various SNMP tools: an extensible agent, an SNMP library, tools for
requesting or setting information from SNMP agents, tools for
generating and handling SNMP traps, a version of the netstat command
which uses SNMP, and a Tk/Perl mib browser. This package contains the
snmpd daemon, documentation, etc.

Install the ucd-snmp package if you need network management tools. You
will probably also want to install the ucd-snmp-utils package, which
contains UCD-SNMP utilities.
