Remote Interfaces (for Option
OH_RCT5023_Server)
SNMP Feature
The controller option supports a standard SNMPv2 control interface which allows read
and write access to all parameters of the system as well as generating SNMPv2 Traps.
The MIB files (SNMP interface description) are available for download from
http://download.lynx-technik.de/public/embedded/SNMP/
GET/SET
Full GET/SET/WALK access is provided to all all parameters of the associated signal
processing modules as well as the infrastructure of the RCT 5023-G_Server (RCT 5023-
G-S).
Regular SNMPv2 authentication is implemented. Due to this the community strings for
read and write access are set to “public” resp. “private”. These default community strings
can be adapted by modifying the hidden configuration variables
SNMP_COMMUNITY_READ resp. SNMP_COMMUNITY_WRITE.
NOTE:
All configuration variables can be modified by specifying the config-keys
(mentioned above) and the desired new values into the appropriate entry fields at the
bottom of the “Configuration” Tab of the top-level node representing the
RCT5023_Server (/RCT 5023-GS) in the LYNX APPolo Control software GUI.
SNMP Traps
In addition to this get&set access (explained above), all Events that a processing module
is able to generate can optionally be sent as SNMPv2 Traps.
Refer to section “Events
Tab” for more information on how an Event can be configured as an SNMP Trap.
In order to successfully send out SNMP Traps, the Trap receiver machine needs to be
configured. You can specify one or more target-machines that shall receive all SNMP
Traps from one RCT 5023-G_Server by editing the configuration variable
SNMP_TRAP_TARGETHOST to one or more IP addresses (multiple IP addresses to be
separated by the semicolon character ‘;’). Once this configuration has been made, the
bluBox server process needs to be restarted. After that, all SNMP Traps from this one
bluBox will be sent to all the specified IP addresses (port 162).
NOTE:
All configuration variables can be modified by specifying the config-keys
(mentioned above) and the desired new values into the appropriate entry fields at the
bottom of the “Configuration” Tab of the top-level node representing the RCT 5023-
G_Server (/RCT 5023-G-S) in the LYNX APPolo Control software GUI.
