SNMP Driver Overview
====================

The SNMP driver
---------------

Several vendors allow a pure Snmp connector. The base SnmpConnector() and related code is in the
*switches/connect/snmp/* directory. There are several vendor-specific snmp drivers derired from the
base snmp class.

Below are some documents that explain how we extract interface and vlan information from the
various SNMP MIBs. Most of that data is read from 'Standard' MIBs, and some vendors have vendor extensions
for additional data.

There are additional vendor-specific SNMP drivers. They all inherit most functionality from the base SnmpConnector().
Only vendor-specific sections are implemented in the vendor classes. They are listed here in alphabetical order:
