SNMP Manager and Authentication System Project

Overview

This project implements an SNMP manager, authentication system, and client-server architecture using a combination of HTML, PHP, Java, Servlets, and JSP. It showcases how SNMP data can be managed and displayed interactively and how authentication can be integrated using Java-based HTTP communication.

Features

Part 1: SNMP Manager in PHP

1. System Group Display:

   • Displays all items in the SNMP System Group except "System Services".
   • Allows editing the last three items of the System Group.
   • Ensures Read and Write community access for SNMP updates.

2. Data Tables:

   • Page 2: Displays the UDP Table.
   • Page 3: Displays the ARP Table.
   • Page 4: Displays the TCP Table.

3. Navigation:

   • Includes navigation links for Next, Previous, and optional Main Page.

Part 2: Java Client, Servlet, and JSP

1. Authentication:

   • Servlet:
     • Receives user ID and Password.
     • Responds with either Permit or Deny based on stored credentials.
   • JSP Page:
     • Receives Name and Password.
     • Responds with either Permit or Deny based on stored credentials.

2. Client Application:

   • Developed using Java.
   • Provides text fields for Name, ID, and Password.
   • Features buttons:
     • Verify1: Sends ID and Password to the Servlet.
     • Verify2: Sends Name and Password to the JSP Page.
   • If both responses are Permit, the client is allowed to fetch SNMP data.

3. SNMP Data Retrieval:

   • Buttons to fetch specific data for each page:
     • Page 1: Fetches System Group data (editable for last three items).
     • Page 2: Fetches UDP Table.
     • Page 3: Fetches ARP Table.
     • Page 4: Fetches TCP Table.
   • Communicates with PHP pages via HTTP requests.

Technical Details

1. Servers:

   • XAMP/WAMP for hosting PHP pages.
   • Tomcat Apache Server for hosting Servlet and JSP.

2. Backend:

   • Pure PHP pages for SNMP data retrieval.
   • Java Servlet for authentication via ID and Password.
   • JSP Page for authentication via Name and Password.

3. Frontend:

   • JavaScript (AJAX or Fetch API) for dynamic data fetching from PHP backend.
   • HTML for client-side display.

4. Client-Server Communication:

   • The client application sends HTTP requests to the PHP server to fetch SNMP data after successful authentication.

Setup and Usage

1. Server Configuration:

   • Set up XAMP or WAMP server for PHP pages.
   • Configure Tomcat Apache Server for Servlet and JSP.

2. SNMP Configuration:

   • Ensure SNMP agent is configured on the target system with read-write access.

3. Java Client:

   • Run the Java client application.
   • Enter credentials and verify via Servlet and JSP.
   • Fetch SNMP data upon successful authentication.

4. Editing SNMP Data:

   • Use the provided interface on Page 1 to modify the last three items in the System Group.

Submission

1. Includes:

   • All source files (HTML, PHP, Java, JSP, Servlet).
   • Required configurations.
   • Optional: Video demonstration (if required by the instructor or TA).

2. Collaboration:

   • Project can be done individually or in groups of 2.
