SNMP
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a communication protocol
designed specifically for managing devices on a network. Equipment commonly
managed with SNMP includes switches, routers and host computers. SNMP is
typically used to configure these devices for proper operation in a network
environment, as well as to monitor them to evaluate performance or detect potential
problems. The switch includes an onboard SNMP agent that continuously monitors
the status of its hardware, as well as the traffic passing through its ports. A network
management station can access this information using network management
software. Access rights to the onboard agent are controlled by community strings. To
communicate with the switch, the management station must first submit a valid
community string for authentication.
Field Attributes
• SNMP Enabled -Activate or deactivate SNMP.
• SNMP Trap Destination - IP address of the trap manager.
Traps indicating status changes are issued by the switch to specified trap
managers. You must specify trap managers so that key events are reported by this
switch to your management station. SNMP trap destination specifies the IP
address of the trap manager.
• SNMP Read Community - A community string that acts like a password and
permits access to the SNMP protocol. The read community string specifies
read-only access. Authorized management stations are only able to retrieve MIB
objects.
• SNMP Write Community - Specifies read-write access. Authorized management
stations are able to both retrieve and modify MIB objects.
• SNMP Trap Community - Community string sent with the notification operation.
