Re: SNMP, CORBA and XML

Hi Arindam,

  Pl note SNMP is not same as SMTP. SMTP which expands to "Simple Mail
Transfer Protocol" is for mail transfer while SNMP expands to "Simple
Network Management Protocol" and is for management of network elements.
  RFC 2571 on "An Architecture for describing SNMP Management frameworks",
April 1999 is a good reference.

Each protocol obviously has its own pros and cons and also areas of
application.
SNMP is for mail transfer whereas CORBA allows you to work with Live
Objects
across networks as if whole network is a single machine.
