Configuring the SNMP Settings
The SNMP Settings page allows you to enable and disable SNMP communication
between an SNMP manager and the ePDU. Enabling SNMP communication allows
the ePDU to send SNMP trap events to the manager, and allow the manager to
retrieve and control the power status of each outlet.
To configure SNMP communication (necessary for passing SNMP traps and individual
outlet control):
1. Select Device Settings , and then select SNMP Settings . The SNMP Settings page
displays.
