Using System Monitor

All System Monitor counters installed on a computer can be viewed with SNMP. To view System Monitor counters with SNMP, use the Perf2MIB tool provided on the Windows 2000 Resource Kit companion CD. For additional information about how to use the Perf2mib.exe tool, see Tools Help on the companion CD.

Managing DHCP

The Windows 2000 – based DHCP server objects and IIS objects can be monitored but not configured by using SNMP.

Managing WINS

All but a few of the WINS server objects can be monitored and configured by using SNMP. For information about what WINS parameters can be configured using SNMP, see "MIB Object Types" in this book. Any WINS objects defined with read/write permissions can be configured.

Managing IAS

Internet Authentication Server (IAS) implements the RADIUS authentication and accounting MIBs, which permit IAS objects to be monitored and configured using SNMP. Any IAS objects defined with read/write permissions can be configured.
