Using SNMP to Manage DHCP, WINS, and
Internet Information Servers

If you have installed the DHCP server, Internet Information Server, or WINS server software on a Windows NT-based computer on the network, you can monitor the DHCP, Internet Information Server, or WINS services by using an SNMP manager program.

The Windows NT-based DHCP server objects and Internet Information Server server objects can be monitored, but not configured, using SNMP.

WINS server objects can be configured and monitored by using SNMP. All but a few of the WINS configuration parameters that can be set by editing the Registry can also be set by using SNMP. For information about which WINS parameters can be set by using SNMP, refer to the description of the WINS MIB in Appendix C, "MIB Object Types for Windows NT." WINS objects that are defined with Access read-write can be configured by using SNMP.
