The Agent Extensibility Protocol, or AgentX, is a computer networking protocol that allows management of Simple Network Management Protocol objects defined by different processes via a single master agent. Agents that export objects via AgentX to a master agent are called subagents.[bettersourceneeded] The AgentX standard not only defines the AgentX protocol, but also the procedure by which those subagents process SNMP protocol messages.[bettersourceneeded]

For more information, see RFC 2741 for the original definition of the protocol and the IETF Agentx Working Group.[bettersourceneeded]
