About receiving runtime information via the SNMP protocol

SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol)—Protocol for managing network devices.

The SNMP protocol is used in Kaspersky Secure Mail Gateway as follows:

1. SNMP agent—Network management software module of Kaspersky Secure Mail Gateway, which monitors the operation of Kaspersky Secure Mail Gateway.
2. Kaspersky Secure Mail Gateway can send this information in the form of SNMP traps—application event notifications.

You can use the SNMP protocol to access the following information about Kaspersky Secure Mail Gateway:

• General information
• Runtime statistics of Kaspersky Secure Mail Gateway since the time of its installation
• Information about Kaspersky Secure Mail Gateway runtime events.

For example, Kaspersky Secure Mail Gateway sends SNMP traps in the following cases:

• The license is renewed.

  The SNMP trap contains the license number, license type, available functionality, and the license expiration date.

• License grace period.

  The SNMP trap contains the license number and the number of days until the grace period ends.

  An SNMP trap is sent when the grace period begins and subsequently once every 24 hours, and when Kaspersky Secure Mail Gateway is restarted.
