SNMP
interface is useful for programs, but the HTTP interface is useful mostly for
human beings. That means, there is scope for automation in the case of
SNMP.

Venkat,
I guess its basically the type of interface
u want to use to manage ur network elements.
HTTP provides u the GUI, the snmp stack like the
net-snmp software provides a strong CLI(command line interface).
however u can also use the tkmib browser,provided
with net-snmp to get a feel of GUI.

Subject: Snmp vs HTTP
Hi,
I have some basic questions regarding network
management.
There and 2 protocols that are used in network management
products. They are SNMP and HTTP.
What is the difference between them as far as network management
is concerned and what is the reason they are used in thier respective
products.
Why Snmp is chosen instead of Http and vice versa.
Regards,
Sri
