TargetSNMP™ Embedded SNMP Manager

TargetSNMP Manager is an embedded SNMPv3 Manager can control and monitor devices with SNMPv3. Configuring SNMPv3 has never been easier with this API that hides the details of users and view through a simple interface. A powerful MIB compiler can optionally be built into the library for full name support. SNMPv3 adds security to SNMPv2c with user, view and notification based access controls. SNMPv3 users are assigned authentication and privacy requirments as well as MIB view access to the SNMP agent. With no limit on the number of simultanious devices under management, embedded applications can be fine tuned to access all or specific tiered levels of device functionality with this SNMP manager, including the notifications to be received.

Shared C and C++ API allows for unique porting advantages

• Well organized and commented ANSI C or Extendable C++ classes
  
• Variable and function names include prefix to ensure no conflicting identifiers
  

Compact and Optimized code base

• Under 75KB, more than half being the DES library
  
• Memory management reuses heap allocations for speed
  

Easy To Use

• Advanced API design abstracts SNMPv3 complexity
  
• Includes compile time option to include a MIB compiler
  

Trap monitor

• Register callbacks to receive notifications from SNMPv1/2c/3 devices
  
• Framework automatically responds to Inform messages
  

Under further development

• AES and Diffie-Hellman key exchange
