SNMP vs. NetFlow: Understanding Their Roles in Network Management
Both SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) and NetFlow are important for network monitoring and management, but they serve different purposes.
What is SNMP?
SNMP is a protocol used to monitor and manage network devices such as routers, switches, servers, and printers. It allows administrators to collect information about device performance, health, and network activity.
Key Features of SNMPv3 (Latest Version)
- Message Integrity – Ensures data is not altered during transmission.
- Authentication – Confirms that messages come from legitimate devices.
- Encryption – Protects SNMP messages from unauthorized access.
- SNMP Traps – Devices can send alerts (traps) to management systems in case of significant events (e.g., a router failure).
📌 Use Case: SNMP is ideal for device health monitoring, fault detection, and performance tracking.
What is NetFlow?
NetFlow, developed by Cisco, is a protocol used for collecting and analyzing network traffic data. It helps administrators understand the source, destination, volume, and flow paths of traffic.
Key Features of NetFlow
- Traffic Profiling – Helps identify trends in network usage.
- Security Monitoring – Detects anomalies and potential threats.
- Efficient Data Collection – Unlike full packet captures, it stores metadata (IP addresses, ports, protocols, etc.).
- Integration with SIEM Tools – Works with security tools like Splunk, IBM QRadar, and ArcSight to analyze network behavior.
📌 Use Case: NetFlow is great for security monitoring, bandwidth analysis, and anomaly detection.
Comparison: SNMP vs. NetFlow
Feature SNMP NetFlow Purpose Device monitoring & management Traffic analysis & flow monitoring Data Type Device status, CPU, memory, uptime, etc. Network flow metadata (IP, ports, protocols, etc.) Security Focus Authentication & encryption for management data Identifies suspicious network behavior & threats Real-Time Alerts Yes (via SNMP Traps) No (but can detect anomalies over time) Traffic Analysis No Yes Complexity Simple More detailed
When to Use SNMP vs. NetFlow?
- Use SNMP when you need to monitor device health, check CPU/memory usage, and receive alerts on hardware failures.
- Use NetFlow when you need to analyze network traffic, detect security threats, or monitor bandwidth consumption.
💡 In practice, organizations often use both SNMP and NetFlow together for a complete network monitoring solution. 🚀
Allah@lemmy.worldOPto Technology@lemmy.world•TBH i am more excited about unlimited or atleast million context AI than AGI so that i can take code of my favorite game and make more levels, for eg: alt history BF1 modEnglish32·6 months agoby the time i finish it would probably have come out and as the researcher said unlimited/million context will come soon plus i work 12 hours everyday i don’t have enough time, i hope i am able to find a more stable job soon.

Algebra was invented by Greeks, Babylonians, Indians, and Chinese. Al-Khwarizmi who was the father of algebra actually modified and translated the works of Greeks, Babylonians and Indians, and he was not an Arab, he was a Khwarizmian from Greater Persia
he also popularized indian numeral system, nowadays 1234567890 are known to be hindu arabic numerals but they are actually hindu numerals , the only way “arabs” contributed to it was mass producing research.
i am not saying arabs didn’t contribute to science it’s just pan-arabist and isalmist propaganda to say modern numbers and algebra are due to arabic/islamic impact

Al-Ghazali forbade math.
Ghazali, in his book, “The savior from Straying” (المنقذ من الضلال), states his position towards the math and philosophy, using this preface :
“There may occur negative points from the mathematics:
When someone starts to learn it, step by step, he will be interested in philosophies, and he will think that all other matters will be as clear as the math, so, when he sees the unhallowed speaking of the philosophers from the others, unintentionally, he will start to obey the unhallowed behavior of the philosophers, and will say: if the religion was right, so these great scholars would follow it, and when he hears that they (philosophers) deny the religion, he will say that the right path is to reject the religion…”
After a detailed discussion, he concludes that :
“To prevent ones from this big risk, we should prevent student from studying the mathematics. Although this knowledge (math) is not related to the religion directly, but because it is the starting point to getting stray, it (math) is forbidden.”
This way, he forbade the math.
Allah@lemmy.worldOPto Atheism@lemmy.world•TIL it's haram to study philosophy and natural scienceEnglish36·7 months agoGhazali gave 18 reasons why women were inferior here and said that anyone who depends on arguments to seek the truth is restricting the mercy of god.
He also said that people who study logic would apply the same high standards to religious claims and find them lacking. He thought that people should already be certain in islam before studying.
In other words, you should assume islam is the truth before thinking critically about it so you dont become a disbeliever.

The Credit for Earlier Muslim Scientists’ Achievements Belongs to the Translated Works of Greek/Roman Scientists, Not Islam
Please note that:
None of the earlier Muslim scientists ever claimed to derive scientific discoveries directly from the Quran or Hadith.
Muslims were initially introduced to Greek/Roman scientific works through their conquests in Egypt and other regions. Later, Abbasid Caliph Mamun (d. 213 Hijri year) ordered the translation of these works into Arabic. Only after this development did Muslim scientists begin to emerge.
Muslims assert that the Sahaba (companions) of Muhammad were the best of Muslim generations. However, despite reading the Quran and Hadith throughout their lives, the Sahaba and the subsequent 5 to 10 Muslim generations were unable to extract any scientific knowledge from the Quran and the Hadith.
Present-day Muslims also struggle to extract scientific discoveries directly from the Quran/Hadith, often relying on science to make new findings before connecting them to the Quran.
Damages that Islam Inflicted upon the Science Islam made the whole Islamic world get religious education like a donkey. As a result, Islam produced millions of Islamic Scholars in the last 1400 years, who were involved only in Fiqh and Sectarian fights. Compared to those millions of Islamic Scholars, Islam was unable to produce even a handful of scientists.
And you will not see even a single woman in the list of those earlier Muslim scientists of the last 1400 years, while Islam considers women to be deficient in intelligence, and they had to stay at home in the name of “Islamic Modesty”.
Moreover, the prohibition of studying human anatomy by Islam, in the name of “respect” for the deceased hindered medical progress for centuries, impeding critical advancements in the medical field.
And then Islam also made life difficult for many Muslim scientists too due to their sects or atheist leanings. Ibn Sina was hiding his whole life, and he had to write his books in this state of hiding. Al-Razi was hit in his head by his own books in the mosque. Ibn-e-Rushd got the punishment for being an atheist. Yaqub al-Kindi lashed in public.
In contemporary times, schools in Muslim countries continue to teach that Darwin’s Theory of Evolution is incorrect, promoting the belief that humans were directly created by Allah and that Allah directly sent humans to the earth after a woman from the crooked rib of a man deceived him to eat the forbidden apple.
