NioNodes support Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). This allows a third party system to monitor NioNodes in an NWare project and get and set control values.
Note: Currently, a third party system cannot use SNMP to interact with nControl and nTouch 180 projects. However, a project hosted by one of these nodes can monitor other devices on the network using SNMP. For more information, see SNMP Components in the NWare Device Reference.

SNMP uses a system of object identifiers (OIDs) or SNMP addresses to provide unique locations for items of data. In each case, you can read a value or replace it with a new one.
NWare also includes a MIB (Management Information Base) file. The NioNode SNMP MIB file is a standardized plain-text format file that defines the available OIDs. This is an uncompiled MIB file.
The NioNode MIB file allows you to replace or add understandable names to guide you through the otherwise all-numeric OIDs. The MIB file was designed alongside the SNMP agent that runs on the NioNode hardware.
