SNMP
Overview
The Terminal Server supports configuration and management through SNMP. SNMP Management
tools (SNMP client/MIB browser software) can be used to set Terminal Server configuration
parameters and/or view Terminal Server statistics.

Terminal Server IP address and configure a read-write user for SNMP version 3 or a community for
SNMP version 1 or 2. You can use DeviceManager, CLI, or the Menu to set the IP address and
user/community (don’t forget to reboot the Terminal Server before connecting with the SNMP
