1.  Introduction

   A management system contains:  several (potentially many) nodes, each
   with a processing entity, termed an agent, which has access to
   management instrumentation; at least one management station; and, a
   management protocol, used to convey management information between
   the agents and management stations.  Operations of the protocol are
   carried out under an administrative framework which defines
   authentication, authorization, access control, and privacy policies.

   Management stations execute management applications which monitor and
   control managed elements.  Managed elements are devices such as
   hosts, routers, terminal servers, etc., which are monitored and
   controlled via access to their management information.

   The management protocol, version 2 of the Simple Network Management
   Protocol [1], may be used over a variety of protocol suites.  It is
   the purpose of this document to define how the SNMPv2 maps onto an
   initial set of transport domains.  Other mappings may be defined in
   the future.

   Although several mappings are defined, the mapping onto UDP is the
   preferred mapping.  As such, to provide for the greatest level of
   interoperability, systems which choose to deploy other mappings
   should also provide for proxy service to the UDP mapping.

1.1.  A Note on Terminology

   For the purpose of exposition, the original Internet-standard Network
   Management Framework, as described in RFCs 1155 (STD 16), 1157 (STD
   15), and 1212 (STD 16), is termed the SNMP version 1 framework
   (SNMPv1).  The current framework is termed the SNMP version 2
   framework (SNMPv2).

3.  SNMPv2 over UDP

   This is the preferred transport mapping.

3.1.  Serialization

   Each instance of a message is serialized (i.e., encoded according to
   the convention of [1]) onto a single UDP[2] datagram, using the
   algorithm specified in Section 8.

3.2.  Well-known Values

   It is suggested that administrators configure their SNMPv2 entities
   acting in an agent role to listen on UDP port 161.  Further, it is
   suggested that notification sinks be configured to listen on UDP port

   162.

   When an SNMPv2 entity uses this transport mapping, it must be capable
   of accepting messages that are at least 484 octets in size.
   Implementation of larger values is encouraged whenever possible.

4.  SNMPv2 over OSI

   This is an optional transport mapping.

4.1.  Serialization

   Each instance of a message is serialized onto a single TSDU [3,4] for
   the OSI Connectionless-mode Transport Service (CLTS), using the
   algorithm specified in Section 8.

4.2.  Well-known Values

   It is suggested that administrators configure their SNMPv2 entities
   acting in an agent role to listen on transport selector "snmp-l"
   (which consists of six ASCII characters), when using a CL-mode
   network service to realize the CLTS.  Further, it is suggested that
   notification sinks be configured to listen on transport selector
   "snmpt-l" (which consists of seven ASCII characters, six letters and
   a hyphen) when using a CL-mode network service to realize the CLTS.
   Similarly, when using a CO-mode network service to realize the CLTS,
   the suggested transport selectors are "snmp-o" and "snmpt-o", for
   agent and notification sink, respectively.

   When an SNMPv2 entity uses this transport mapping, it must be capable
   of accepting messages that are at least 484 octets in size.
   Implementation of larger values is encouraged whenever possible.

5.  SNMPv2 over DDP

   This is an optional transport mapping.

5.1.  Serialization

   Each instance of a message is serialized onto a single DDP datagram
   [5], using the algorithm specified in Section 8.

5.2.  Well-known Values

   SNMPv2 messages are sent using DDP protocol type 8.  SNMPv2 entities
   acting in an agent role listens on DDP socket number 8, whilst
   notification sinks listen on DDP socket number 9.

RFC 1906             Transport Mappings for SNMPv2          January 1996


   Administrators must configure their SNMPv2 entities acting in an
   agent role to use NBP type "SNMP Agent" (which consists of ten ASCII
   characters), whilst notification sinks must be configured to use NBP
   type "SNMP Trap Handler" (which consists of seventeen ASCII
   characters).

   The NBP name for agents and notification sinks should be stable - NBP
   names should not change any more often than the IP address of a
   typical TCP/IP node.  It is suggested that the NBP name be stored in
   some form of stable storage.

   When an SNMPv2 entity uses this transport mapping, it must be capable
   of accepting messages that are at least 484 octets in size.
   Implementation of larger values is encouraged whenever possible.

5.3.  Discussion of AppleTalk Addressing

   The AppleTalk protocol suite has certain features not manifest in the
   TCP/IP suite.  AppleTalk's naming strategy and the dynamic nature of
   address assignment can cause problems for SNMPv2 entities that wish
   to manage AppleTalk networks.  TCP/IP nodes have an associated IP
   address which distinguishes each from the other.  In contrast,
   AppleTalk nodes generally have no such characteristic.  The network-
   level address, while often relatively stable, can change at every
