Faults and warnings can also be diagnosed with SNMP using the NIU. The NIU sup-
ports complete interactions with Unison system:
• Gets, Sets, and Traps/Notification
The NIU enables access to multiple LGC systems at a site as follows:
• NIU-4P-NM-1 (Up to four Unison systems)
• NIU-10P-NM-1 (Up to ten Unison systems)
The LGC NIU includes a MIB for integrating into the Network Management System
(NMS) and supports SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c.
