SNMP defines only five types of messages that are exchanged between the manager and agent.

  1. Fetch the value of one or more variables: the get-request operator.
  2. Fetch the next variable after one or more specified variables: the get-next-request operator. (We describe what we mean by "next" later in this chapter.)
  3. Set the value of one or more variables: the set-request operator.
  4. Return the value of one or more variables: the get-response operator. This is the message returned by the agent to the manager in response to the get-request, get-next-request, and set-request operators.
  5. Notify the manager when something happens on the agent: the trap operator.
