In the late 80s and in to the 1990s there was a battle for the title of network management protocol between the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and the Common Management Information Protocol (CMIP). The criteria for the title was simple: security, bandwidth / resource management, ease of use and most importantly overall acceptance.
In the mid and early1980s networks were beginning to grow and the need for network management was too; therefore, the Internet Activities board recommended that all TCP/IP protocols be network manageable. At the time the Common Management Information Services and Protocol over TCP/IP (CMOT) was a draft standard and SNMP was already accepted as a completed standard. ...
The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) (an open international community) developed SNMP, as a basic network manager. SNMP was to provide basic network management for small networks and was never intended to be a long-term network management system.
