NAME

       snmpps - display process table on a network entity via SNMP

SYNOPSIS

       snmpps [COMMON OPTIONS] [-Cp] [-Ca] [-C n | m | t ] AGENT

       snmptop [COMMON OPTIONS] [-Cp] [-Ca] [-C n | m | t ] AGENT

DESCRIPTION

       snmpps  is  a  networked version of a simple ps command. It checks the processes on the remote machine by
       examining the HOST-RESOURCES-MIB's hrSWRunTable and the hrSWRunPerfTable.

       AGENT identifies a target SNMP agent, which is  instrumented  to  monitor  the  given  objects.   At  its
       simplest,  the AGENT specification will consist of a hostname or an IPv4 address.  In this situation, the
       command will attempt communication with the agent, using UDP/IPv4 to port 161 of the given  target  host.
       See the snmpcmd(1) manual page for a full list of the possible formats for AGENT.

       snmptop  emulates  the  top  command using SNMP. While running, the keyboard inputs of 'c', 'n', 'm', 't'
       switches sorting between cpu, pid, memory, or total runtime.  Typing 'i' toggles hiding  idle  processes,
       while  'o'  toggles  hiding  Os  processes.  Typing 'a' toggles display of hrSWRunParameters, 'p' toggles
       display of hrSWRunPath.
