In order to be able to control and monitor vSNMP with vsmStudio or third-party applications, an Ember+ interface has been implemented in the vSnmp.Manager service, which acts as an Ember+ provider.

For backward-compatibility, a legacy EmBER interface is also provided.

Ember+ Control

The vSnmp.Manager service allows Ember+ control through TCP port 12210.

The tree presented to the consumer aligns closely to the device tree configured with vSnmp.Editor:

Each device is represented by an Ember+ node, which in turn contains nodes for all object entries the implemented device class contains. These object entry nodes in turn contain parameters for all object cells in the object entry.

Additionally, the Ember+ interface publishes basic product information in the standard Ember+ node “identity”.

Legacy EmBER Control

To establish an EmBER connection with the vSnmp.Manager service, connect to TCP port 12209. vSNMP only publishes devices, their object entries and cells. Since the EmBER protocol has been superseded by the Ember+ protocol, no further improvements are planned for this interface.
