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.
