Network Module Configuration for SNMP
The Grass Valley Modular Control and Monitoring System uses the Simple
Network Monitoring Protocol (SNMP) internet standard for reporting
status information to remote monitoring stations. The 8900NET Configura-
tion page provides SNMP setup. When SNMP Agent software is installed
on the 8900NET module, enabled status reports are sent to an SNMP
Manager such as the Grass Valley’s NetCentral application.
Note
There are both hardware and software report enable switches for each report.
Both must be enabled for the report to be sent. Software report switches are
set on the 8900NET Configuration page for the Frame, the 8900NET module,
and each module slot.
SNMP Agent Installation
To use SNMP, the SNMP Agent software must be installed on the module.
The Configuration page shown in
is displayed if the agent soft-
ware has not already been installed. Click on the install button to view the
license agreement.
