NEC SNMP Agent
The NEC Desktop Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Agent is an
extension to the Microsoft SNMP Agent. The NEC SNMP Agent permits a
network administrator to manage NEC PowerMate clients.
The NEC SNMP Agent performs the following major functions:
!
Assets Management — displays system serial number, product model,
and more.
!
Configuration Management — displays memory size and more.
!
Help Desk Support — provides information such as BIOS versions.
!
Alert Notification — provides alerts when thresholds are exceeded (for
example, when temperatures exceed specified limits in a computer).
SNMP-managed devices on a network send messages (traps) when a preset level
of device activity occurs. Notification of events with SNMP traps is sent to a
network manager upon reaching either a user-specified over-threshold or under-
threshold condition for any supported management information base (MIB)
variable.
The following sections describe how to install and configure the NEC SNMP
Agent on systems running the Microsoft Windows 98, Windows 2000, or
Windows NT operating system.
Installing the NEC SNMP Agent
Install the NEC SNMP Agent on the Windows 98, Windows 2000, or Windows
NT operating system as follows.
Do not install both the NEC SNMP Agent and LANDesk
Client Manager on the same computer.
Do not install both the NEC SNMP Agent and LANDesk Client Manager on the
same computer. The two applications are incompatible, and neither can be
removed using the uninstall utility. To remove them, a full restore must be
performed after which all applications must be reinstalled.
The NEC SNMP Agent and the NEC WebTelligent software are each installed
using a Setup.exe program launched from a subdirectory on the NEC
Applications and Driver CD. Install the applications without regard to the order
in which the other applications are installed.
Note
:
Install the NEC SNMP Agent software from the
NEC Application and Driver CD or download the software
from the NEC CSD website (www.nec-computers.com).
