SNMP agent
The Simple Network Management Protocol, abbreviated SNMP, is the
Internet standard protocol for exchanging management information between
management console applications and managed entities. SNMP uses a
distributed architecture consisting of managers and agents. An agent is an
SNMP application that responds to queries from SNMP manager applica-
tions.
The SNMP protocol provides a set of rules to monitor and manage network
resources including both hardware components and software applications.
In the context of Xprint V7.0, the SNMP agent exports Xprint V7.0 infor-
mation (resources definition and status). The list of exported attributes is
described in a MIB file delivered in the Xprint V7.0 package.
Supervisor
A supervisor is directly in charge of controlling one or more printers. It
receives the job data from the superordinate server and passes it on to the
backend program.
Xprint V7.0 database
The Xprint V7.0 database contains all the data Xprint V7.0 needs to be able
to access the Xprint V7.0 resources. This includes information on the
defined hosts, Xprint V7.0 users, printers and printer groups as well as on forms,
filters, gateways and
servers. Only the print jobs are stored on the server, which is responsible for
their administration.
Xprint V7.0 domain
All the Xprint V7.0 objects, in particular the hosts, for which an entry exists in
a shared Xprint V7.0 database and which are administered by a single Xprint
V7.0 administrator.
Xprint V7.0 user
An Xprint V7.0 user is a user who is registered in the Xprint V7.0 database.
Xprint V7.0 allows extensive manipulation of the privileges of the Xprint V7.0
users within the Xprint V7.0 system.
