Although there is no architectural reason that a system cannot have both types of functionality, most SNMP agents are found in dedicated routers and other specialized network equipment that is not capable of acting as a management station.
The SNMP package included with your SCO system provides the functionality of both an agent and a management station. A system running the software can monitor other systems and be monitored as well.
You can also use the SCO Intranet Management System to monitor use of the network, and to detect and diagnose problems. This graphical tool allows you to query, display and configure network management database values. It also has facilities for logging trap events.
