The MPLS Topology Server component of MPLS Manager sends SNMP Get requests to supported devices to discover MPLS, VPN, and (optional) BGP topology objects and their relationships. The MPLS Topology Server also sends SNMP Set and Get requests to supported devices to execute periodic or on-demand remote pings.

The MPLS Topology Server supports SNMPv1, v2c, and v3 access to the MIB objects on supported devices.
