SNMP Agent
The AWK-3131A-M12-RCC supports SNMP V1/V2c/V3. SNMP V1 and SNMP V2c use a community string match
for authentication, which means that SNMP servers access all objects with read-only or read/write permissions
using the community string public/private (default value). SNMP V3, which requires you to select an
authentication level of MD5 or SHA, is the most secure protocol. You can also enable data encryption to
enhance data security.
The AWK-3131A-M12-RCC’s MIB can be found in the software CD and supports reading the attributes via SNMP.
(Only get method is supported.)
SNMP security modes and security levels supported by the AWK-3131A-M12-RCC are shown in the following
table. Select the security mode and level that will be used to communicate between the SNMP agent and
manager.
