Enabling SQL Server Support of SNMP on Windows 98

You can monitor remote connections to computers running Microsoft® Windows® 98 if your network uses Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).

The database controlled by an SNMP agent is known as SNMP Management Information Base (MIB). The values contained in an SNMP MIB can be shared with the SNMP MIB of another application.

Microsoft SQL Server™ Management Information Base (MSSQL-MIB), stored in the Mssql.mib file, and the SQL Server SNMP extension agent (Sqlsnmp.dll) are copied to the system by SQL Server Setup and are enabled if SNMP is running at the time of installation. SNMP can be activated or deactivated at any time by selecting the Enable SNMP check box in the SQL Server Network Utility dialog box.

For more information about SNMP, see the SNMP application documentation.
