Figure 77 - SNMP configuration
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is used to remotely monitor the router for conditions that may warrant administrative attention. It can be used to retrieve information from the router
such as the signal strength, the system time and the interface status.
To configure SNMP:
1. Click the
SNMP
toggle key to switch it to the
ON
position.
2. Enter Read-only community name and Read-write community name which are used for client authentication.
Community names are used as a type of security to prevent access to reading and/or writing to the routers configuration. It is recommended that you change the Community names
to something other than the default settings when using this feature.
3. Click the
Save
button to save any changes to the settings.
The

button displays the Management information base (MIB) of the router. The MIB displays all the objects of the router that can have their values set or report their status. The MIB is
formatted in the SNMP-related standard RFC1155.
