configuration file (snmpd-net-snmp.conf file) from the
/etc/opt/novell/eDirectory/
conf/ndssnmp
directory.
To start NET-SNMP-5.0.8 Master Agent, use the following syntax:
installed_NET-SNMP_directory
/usr/local/sbin/snmpd -C -c /etc/ndssnmp/
snmpd-net-snmp.conf 8161
IMPORTANT:
If any configuration files are changed, the master agent and subagent should be
restarted.
Starting the Subagent
To start the subagent, execute the following command:
/sbin/init.d/ndssnmpsa start
Enter the username and password when prompted. Upon successful authentication, the following
message is displayed if INTERACTION = ON in the
/etc/opt/novell/eDirectory/
conf/ndssnmp/ndssnmp.cfg
file:
Do you want to remember password? (Y/N)
Enter
Y
to remember the password. When you start the subagent the next time, you are not prompted
for the password.
Enter
N
to enter the password when the subagent is started the next time.
Stopping the Subagent
To stop the subagent, execute the following command:
/sbin/init.d/ndssnmpsa stop
15.5 Monitoring eDirectory Using SNMP
eDirectory is monitored using the traps and statistics feature of SNMP.
To monitor an eDirectory server using SNMP, you need the following rights over the NCP server,
LDAP group and LDAP server objects:
• Supervisor rights over the NCP server object
• Read rights over the LDAP Allow Clear Text Password attribute of the LDAP Group object
• Read rights over the LDAP TCP Port and LDAP SSL Port attributes of the LDAP Server object
By default a user who has logged in with the administrative rights does not face any problem in
monitoring an eDirectory server using SNMP.
15.5.1 Traps
The SNMP component generates a total of 119 traps out of which traps ndsServerStart (2001) and
ndsServerStop (2002) cannot be configured. These traps are enabled by default.
You can use a MIB browser to check the generated traps.
