Provisioning for SNMP
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an application layer protocol
that allows you to manage network devices. SNMP is based on a client-server
query-response mode that requires an Ethernet connection. A manager application
(software installed on a computer) is the client generating the queries, and an agent
(software on the TimeProvider 2300/2700) is the server generating responses. The
TimeProvider 2300/2700 SNMP supports traps and the MIB-II system MIB.
TimeProvider 2300/2700 supports SNMPv2c and SNMPv3. SNMPv3 provides
additional security features not available in SNMPv2c. In addition to the functions of
SNMPv2c, SNMPv3 allows user and trapuser levels that are based on
authentication and privacy settings. The authentication algorithm is either
HMAC-SHA-1-96 or MD5, with a 20-character key. The privacy settings are based
on either the CBC-DES or AES encryption standard, with a 16-character key. All
keys are uppercase.
Port 161 is the port of standard SNMP interactive communications and port 162 is
the trap port.
SNMP functionality is provisioned on the TP 2300/2700 using the CLI command
“
).
Each alarm trap OID from the TP 2300/2700 represents a unique alarm.
Note:
The system will automatically reboot after receiving either
the "
set configuration default
" or "
set configuration
factory
" commands
Notes:
Setting the configuration to
default
will not overwrite the
user login information or the IP address of MGMT port. Setting the
configuration to
factory
will overwrite the user login information and
return the IP address of MGMT port to the factory set address.
