Configuration Options
6.8.4.2. DDNS Parameters
The DDNS Parameters menu is used to select parameters and define hosts for Dynamic
DNS services. The DDNS Parameters menu includes the following parameters::
•
Services:
This item is used to set the service type to either Dyn or None.
(Default = None)
•
Host Name:
The IP Address for the DDNS Service. (Default = undefined)
•
Username:
(Default = undefined)
•
Password:
(Default = undefined)
•
Maximum Update Times:
Determines how often the VMR/NPS will ping the DDNS
host address. (Default = Every 1 Hour)
6.8.5. SNMP Access Parameters
These menus are used to select access parameters for the SNMP feature. In the
Text Interface, the SNMP Access Parameters menu is accessed via the Network
Configuration menu. In the Web Browser Interface, the SNMP Access Parameters menu
is accessed via the flyout menus under the Network Configuration link.
Notes:
• After you have configured SNMP Access Parameters, you will then be able to
manage the VMR/NPS's User Directory and display unit status via SNMP, as
described in Section 13.
• In the Text Interface, SNMP Access Parameters are defined via two separate
menus that are accessed via either the
/N
command (IPv4) or the
/N6
command (IPv6.)
• In the Web Browser interface, both IPv4 and IPv6 SNMP Access Parameters
are defined via a single menu. When defining IPv6 parameters, make certain
that the IPv6 checkbox in the SNMP Access Parameters menu is checked.
The SNMP Access Parameters menu allows the following parameters to be defined:
•
Enable:
Enables/disables SNMP Polling. (Default = Off.)
Note:
This item only applies to external SNMP polling of the VMR/NPS; it does
not effect the ability of the VMR/NPS to send SNMP traps.
•
Version:
Determines which SNMP Version the VMR/NPS will respond to. For
example, if this item is set to V3, then clients who attempt to contact the VMR/NPS
using SNMPv2 will not be allowed to connect. (Default = V1/V2 Only.)
•
Read Only:
Enables/Disables the "Read Only Mode", which controls the ability to
access configuration functions and invoke switching commands. When Enabled
("Yes"), you will not be able to change configuration parameters or invoke other
commands when you contact the VMR/NPS via SNMP. (Default = No.)
Note:
In order to define user names for the VMR/NPS via your SNMP client, the
Read Only feature must be disabled. When the Read Only feature is enabled,
you will not be able to issue configuration commands to the VMR/NPS unit via
SNMP.
