7.2 SNMP Agent
Click the entry on the left hand navigation panel for
Service Setting – SNMP Agent
. This directs you to the
SNMP Agent page.
The SNMP collects and stores management
information for use in a network management
system. The WH-5000A integrated SNMP
agent software module translates
the device
management information into a common form for
interpretation by the SNMP manager, which
usually resides on a network administrator’s
computer.
In the current release, the SNMP agent module
support
SNMPv1,
SNMPv2C
and
SNMPv3. It also implements warmStart,
linkDown, linkUp, and authentication. The
SNMP configuration consists of several
fields, which are explained below:
`
Community:
The Community field for Get (Read Only), Set (Read & Write), and Trap is simply
the SNMP
terminology for “password” for those functions.
`
Source:
The IP address or name where the information is obtained.
`
Access Control:
Define the level of management interaction permitted.
If using SNMPv3, enter a username (minimum of eight characters), authentication type with key and data
encryption type with a key. This configuration information will also need to be entered in your MIB manager
setup.
