The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is essential for managing and monitoring network devices. As network environments change, understanding the differences between SNMP v2 and SNMP v3 becomes important. SNMP v2 offers improvements over SNMP v1, such as 32-bit counters and better error handling. However, SNMP v2c still uses community strings for authentication, transmitting data in plain text, which poses security risks. On the other hand, SNMP v3 introduces a robust security model, offering authentication and encryption, which helps prevent unauthorized access to your network infrastructure.

Even before 2020, the concept of Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) was already widespread. But once the pandemic set off the remote work trend, BYOD policies became even more widely implemented. While BYOD has certainly allowed for more flexibility, it brings with it a whole new set of challenges. Among these are increased security risks and bandwidth usage. These challenges make it paramount that companies have comprehensive BYOD management strategies in place. And no BYOD strategy is complete without infrastructure monitoring. We’ll soon take a look at 3 ways monitoring can support your BYOD policy, but first, let’s understand the challenges BYOD brings with it.
