An apparatus and method is provided for managing a communication device using Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). When a developer creates an SNMP interface header file through an application program at a compile time, an extractor generates a management information base (MIB) file and object identifier information (OIDInfo) on the basis of the interface header file. When a manager makes an SNMP request at a run time, an agent sends the OIDInfo included in the SNMP request message to an OIDInfo processor. The OIDInfo processor refers to an OIDInfo memory and delivers general message service (GMS) information to the agent. A GMS request/response process between the agent and the application program is then performed on the basis of the GMS information. |
