We highly recommend the user read this documentation and examine the sample applications included in the distribution in order to become familiar with the SNMP for .NET classes. For the most basic quick-start, create a new Windows Application project in Visual Studio, and see the Code Examples page for accessible examples to try.
The documentation and product samples illustrate some common SNMP usage scenarios, but SNMP communications can be more complex. This product can be used to implement the most complex of SNMP communications, but such scenario descriptions may fall beyond the scope of this documentation. For advanced usage we recommend SNMP, SNMPv2, SNMPv3, and RMON 1 and 2, Third Edition, by William Stallings and published by Addison-Wesley.
All samples include C#, VB.NET and VC++/CLI versions. Some samples include Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) versions. PowerShell samples are also available.
| Sample | Description |
|---|---|
| SNMP Agent | Demonstrates responding to SNMP requests and sending trap and notification messages. |
| SNMP Manager | Demonstrates getting and setting Agent variable values, sending and receiving inform messages, retrieving tables, and receiving traps and notifications. |
| Trap Catcher | Demonstrates receiving and handling trap and notification messages. |
| MIB Treeview | Demonstrates displaying MIBs in a tree structure and on-demand MIB parsing. Also demonstrates MIB compilation into code files. |
| MIB Walker | Demonstrates discovering and retrieving all variables supported by an agent. |
| SNMP Poll | Demonstrates simultaneous high-performance polling of numerous variables. |
| SNMP Web Service | Demonstrates a web service that queries agents. |
| SNMP WCF Service | Demonstrates a Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) service that queries agents. |
| Web SNMP Manager | Demonstrates getting Agent variable values in a web application. |
| WPF Manager | The same functionality as the SNMP Manager sample in a Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) application. |
| WPF Agent | The same functionality as the SNMP Agent sample in a WPF application. |

Dart installation executables are authenticode signed with a "Dart Communications" digital certificate to ensure against tampering during distribution.
Dart dlls included in the installation bin directory are .NET strong name signed, but not authenticode signed. These dlls are used by the sample applications and typically referenced in users' products.
For those users who require dlls signed by the author company (for example, for Windows logo compliance), dlls that have been signed with the "Dart Communications" digital certificate are also included in the product. These dlls are contained in the "Signed" sub-folder under the installation bin folder.
In accordance with the End-User Licensing Agreement, pre-compiled Dart dlls may NOT be signed with a user's own certificate. However, for users who wish to independently sign these dlls, Dart offers Enterprise licenses which allow for this. Please contact sales@dart.com for more information.
Target Platforms: Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5, .NET Standard 2.0
