Chapter 7 - MIB Structure and SNMP SNMP Service Agent
116 Mediatrix 1204
SNMP Service Agent
You can define whether the unit can be configured via SNMP or exclusively via its web interface.
1. In the snmpAgentMIB , define the SNMP service agent status in the snmpAgentEnable variable.
The SNMP service agent controls whether the Mediatrix 1204 may be accessed via SNMP or not.
• enable: SNMP connections are allowed.
• disable: SNMP connections are forbidden.
If you are exclusively using the web page to configure the Mediatrix 1204, you could disable the
SNMP service agent and forbid any SNMP connection to the unit.
If the SNMP agent is disabled and the unit enters into recovery mode, SNMP connections are
allowed during that time. Once the unit returns to its normal state, the SNMP service agent will revert
to the configuration you have set.
Current MIB Version
You can find out the version of the MIB currently in the Mediatrix 1204.
1. In the sysMgmtMIB , locate the sysMibVersion variable.
This variable displays the current version of the MIB.
Sending Configuration Data to the Mediatrix 1204
The configuration data can be provisioned into the Mediatrix 1204 in two ways:
as a configuration file sent from the Management Server to the Mediatrix 1204 via TFTP
as a MIB sent from the Management Server to the Mediatrix 1204 via SNMP
Configuration File
The configuration file is the fastest way to deliver the necessary information. This may be important when
initializing a large number of units at the same time. The configuration file is mostly used for the initial
provisioning sequence (see
“Initial Provisioning Sequence” on page 14 for more details).
For more information on how to use a configuration file for updating the Mediatrix 1204, see “Chapter 12 -
Configuration File Download” on page 153 .
Management Information Base – MIB
Sending information via SNMP means that individual variables can be changed without sending the whole
MIB. You could use a dual system where a configuration file is sent for initial configuration and a MIB browser
/ SNMP browser is used to implement minor changes.
The Mediatrix 1204 has several configurable MIBs. All variables in these MIBs have been configured by
default upon start up. However, if you need to modify some of these variables, use a MIB browser.
