Configuring the SNMP Agent
The EBW-E100 provides an SNMP agent that responds to incoming SNMP Get
requests. All parameters that exist in the ASCII configuration file, can be read via
SNMP Get requests (except user name and password of the web interface
authentication). These parameters are described in the MIB (Management
Information Base).
Configuration via web interface (menu "Server services", page "SNMP agent")
In order to enable the SNMP agent, check the checkbox "Activate SNMP
agent".
In order to download the private MIB, click on the link "Download private
MIB".
In order to permit SNMP Get requests only from the local network and
send responds only to the local network, check the checkbox
"Exclusively allow SNMP local".
In order to specify the port, on which the SNMP agent receives UDP
messages, enter the port into the field "Port".
In order to specify a contact information for the SNMP agent, you can
enter this into the field "Contact information".
In order to specify a description for the SNMP agent, you can enter this
into the field "description".
In order to use the SNMP agent, you must specify and configure the
SNMP versions to be used. In order to use SNMP v1 or SNMP v2c,
check the checkbox "Use SNMP v1/v2c" and enter the community string
into the field "Community". In order to use SNMP v3, check the
checkbox "Use SNMP v3" and enter the SNMP user name into the field
"User name". In order to use an SNMP v3 authentication, select the
authentication method in the drop-down list field "Authentication" and
enter the password for the authentication (at least 8 characters) into the
respective field. In order to use an SNMP v3 encryption, select the
encryption method in the drop-down list field "Encryption" and enter the
password for the encryption (at least 8 characters) into the respective
field. An authentication is pre-condition for an encryption.
Save your settings by clicking "OK".
