Use the SNMP configuration screen to display and modify parameters for the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).
Community
Community: A community name authorized for management access. Up to 5 community names may be entered.
Access: Management access is restricted to Read Only (Read) or Read/Write (Write).
Valid: Select to enable the entry, and deselect to disable the entry.
Trap
When a significant event is detected by the agent, the SNMP agent can notify a Network Management Station (NMS) specified as a trap receiver.
IP Address: Traps are sent to this address when errors or specific events occur on the network.
Community: A community string (password) specified for trap management. Enter a word, something other than public or private, to prevent unauthorized individuals from accessing information on your system.
Version: Sets the trap status to disabled, or enabled with V1 or V2c. The v2c protocol was proposed in late 1995 and includes enhancements to v1 that are universally accepted. These include a get-bulk command to reduce network management traffic when retrieving a sequence of MIB variables, and a more elaborate set of error codes for improved reporting to a Network Management Station.
