Configure SNMP
The EAP can be configured as an SNMP agent and work together with the SNMP manager.
Once the EAP has become an SNMP agent, it is able to receive and process request
messages from the SNMP manager. At present, the EAP supports SNMP v1 and v2c.
To configure the EAP as an SNMP agent, go to the
Management > SNMP
page.
Follow the steps below to complete the configuration on this page:
1. Check the box to enable
SNMP Agent
.
2. Refer to the following table to configure the required parameters:
SysContact
Enter the textual identification of the contact person for this managed
node.
SysName
Enter an administratively-assigned name for this managed node.
SysLocation
Enter the physical location of this managed node.
Get Community
Community refers to a host group aiming at network management.
Get Community only has the read-only right of the device’s SNMP
information. The community name can be considered a group password.
The default setting is public.
Get Source
Defines the IP address (for example, 10.10.10.1) for management
systems that can serve as Get Community to read the SNMP information
of this device. The default is 0.0.0.0, which means all hosts can read the
SNMP information of this device.
