Credentials for Secure SNMPv3 Common Agent (Optional)
Set up or restore the secure SNMPv3 credentials only for an MCC 7100 IP Dispatch Console inside
the ASTRO
®
25 Radio Network Infrastructure (RNI). This section provides the rules to follow when you
use SNMPv3 credentials.
The IP address of the dispatch console directly affects SNMPv3 functionality. If you modify the IP
address after its initial setting, it can require that you reset the SNMPv3 user credentials on the
dispatch console computer. For more information, see the “Configuring Console Site Elements for
SNMPv3” procedure in the
SNMPv3 manual.
The Unified Event Manager (UEM) is a fault management application designed to handle the critical
fault management functions. To configure secure settings for fault management, see the “Configuring
the UEM for SNMPv3” section in the
SNMPv3 manual.
IMPORTANT:
When you launch the SNMPv3 Common Agent GUI, the account must be a member of the
Network Security Administrators group. A local administrator or domain administrator that are
not part of the Network Security Administrators group, must launch the GUI from an elevated
command prompt.
If you must re-image the dispatch console or re-install the operating system, create a backup
copy of the
snmpd.conf
file. When you restore the credentials, copy the backed-up file to
C:
\ProgramData\Motorola\Motorola Common Agent\persist\snmpd.conf
.
Modifications to secure SNMPv3 credentials do not take effect until the computer is restarted.
Adding a Remote Console to the ASTRO DNS Server
Add an MCC 7100 IP Dispatch Consoles outside the ASTRO
®
25 Radio Network Infrastructure (RNI) to
the Domain Name Server (DNS). This action involves adding the hostname and IP address of the

®
25 RNI.
NOTICE:
The IP address on the connecting remote console must be the IP address of the
ASTRO
®
25 RNI and not the IP address of the Customer Enterprise Network (CEN).
Procedure:
1 In the Control Panel of the Windows operating system, navigate to the Administrative Tools
pane.
2 Double-click DNS .
