Configuring SNMP
For SNMP v1/v2c queries, specify a Read Community string on the NETWORK - SNMP page.
For SNMP v3 queries, create v3 Users on the NETWORK - SNMP page.
Additional standard SNMP values, such as sysLocation and sysContact are also specified
on the
NETWORK - SNMP page.
The SyncServer Product CD includes a copy of the SyncServer custom MIB file that can be
loaded into SNMP management stations.
Configuring the SyncServer to send SNMP Traps
To configure SNMP to send v1 or v2c traps:
1. Go to the
NETWORK -> SNMP Traps page.
2. In the "Add/Edit Trap Recipient" section of the page, do the following:
n
Enter the IP Address of the destination management console.
n
Select whether it is a v1 or v2c trap.
n
Enter the Community string that will be included in the trap PDU.
n
For v2c, mark Send As Inform if you want to send an INFORM-PDU. (Otherwise a
TRAP-PDU or TRAP2-PDU is sent.)
n
Click Save.
n
Go to the ADMIN -> Alarms page, and specify which events should generate SNMP traps.
To configure SNMP to send v3 traps:
NOTE! To configure SNMP to send v3 traps, you must first create a v3 user which cor-
responds to a user on the destination management console. (This is done through the
NETWORK -> SNMP page.)
1. Go to the NETWORK -> SNMP Traps page.
2. In the "Add/Edit Trap Recipient" section of the page, do the following:
n
Enter the IP Address of the destination management console.
n
Select v3 as the trap type.
n
Enter the name of the v3 User you created on the NETWORK -> SNMP page.
n
Mark Send As Inform if you want to send an INFORM-PDU. (Otherwise a TRAP-PDU or
TRAP2-PDU is sent.)
n
Enter the 8-character Auth phrase for the user, and indicate if it is M5D or SHA1.
n
Specify an optional Priv phrase.
n
Click Save.
n
Go to the ADMIN -> Alarms page, and specify which events should generate SNMP
traps.
Use SNMP get from the destination management console (as this v3 user), to query the Syn-
cServer for its EngineID. You may then configure any desired SNMP v3 trap receivers on
your remote management console.
