5.7.2 Menu Option 1: Security configuration
Setting the Telnet configuration password prevents unauthorized access of the setup menu via a Telnet connection
to port 9999. Default password is meinberg. To change this password enter this menu by pressing 1 and return.
After the password is changed it has to be acknowledged by reentering it.
5.7.3 Menu Option 2: SNMP Configuration
Here you can setup the SNMP parameters:
SNMP community name for read (public):
The SNMP community value is some kind of a rudimentary access control. Every SNMP request pointed to the
module includes a community string defined by the originator of the request. This community is checked against
the configured community names and a reply is only sent if they matched. In order to improve SNMP security,
the ANZ14/NET module additionally checks the IP address of the SNMP client and only accepts requests by
hosts configured as SNMP trap receivers. So, if you want to send SNMP requests to the module, you have to
define the IP address of your PC as a SNMP trap receiver (see below).
SNMP community name for write (rwpublic):
An incoming SNMP request coming with this community string is granted read-writeaccess, meaning you can
change a value. At the moment there are no variables accessible for write-access, so this value can be used to
add a second SNMP community to be accepted by the module.
Enter IP addresses for SNMP traps:
1: (172) .(016) .(003) .(002)
2: (172) .(016) .(003) .(045)
3: (000) .(000) .(000) .(000)
Here you can enter up to three SNMP trap receivers. As describe above, these IP addresses are additionally
used to authenticate SNMP requests. You find a description of how to enter IP addresses in the Menu Option
1 section (see above).
A description of the supported SNMP variables and the MIB can be found in the SNMP Reference section of
this manual.
5.7.4 Menu Option 3: Syslog Configuration
This option allows you to configure a syslog server. The module is sending event log messages to UDP port
514(=syslog) and the configured server can record them, for example. Please note that you need to configure
your syslog service to accept remote messages. Otherwise the messages are dropped by the syslog server
without further notice.
A syslog server is defined like this:
******** SYSLOG Configuration ********
Use SYSLOG logging? (Y) Y
Enter IP address for SYSLOG server:(172) .(016) .(003) .(002)
