Field
Description
Generate HTTP SSL
Certificate
Select this option to generate a new SSL certificate for the secure Web server. This should
be done once the access point has an IP address to ensure that the common name for the
certificate matches the IP address of the UAP. Generating a new SSL certificate will restart
the secure Web server. The secure connection will not work until the new certificate is
accepted on the browser. Click the
Update
button to generate the new SSL certificate.
HTTP SSL
Certificate File
Status

are currently using to access the AP management interface, the current connection will end and
you will not be able to access the AP by using that protocol until it is enabled.
Configuring SNMP on the Access Point
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) defines a standard for recording, storing, and sharing information
about network devices. SNMP facilitates network management, troubleshooting, and maintenance. The AP supports
SNMP versions 1, 2, and 3. Unless specifically noted, all configuration parameters on this page apply to SNMPv1 and
SNMPv2c only.
Key components of any SNMP-managed network are managed devices, SNMP agents, and a management system.
The agents store data about their devices in Management Information Bases (MIBs) and return this data to the SNMP
manager when requested. Managed devices can be network nodes such as APs, routers, switches, bridges, hubs,
servers, or printers.
The UAP can function as an SNMP managed device for seamless integration into network management systems such
as HP OpenView.
From the
SNMP
page under the Services heading, you can start or stop control of SNMP agents, configure community
passwords, access MIBs, and configure SNMP Trap destinations.
From the pages under the SNMPv3 heading, you can manage SNMPv3 users and their security levels and define
access control to the SNMP MIBs. For information about how to configure SNMPv3 views, groups, users, and targets,
see
“Section 6 - Configuring SNMPv3” on page
75.
To configure SNMP, click the
SNMP
tab under the
Services
heading and update the fields described in the table
below.
