Forcing a connection using SNMP
To force a connection using SNMP, the access rights that apply to SNMP control are
assigned to a user named “snmpUser.” After adding and setting access rights for the
snmpUser, you can force a switch to any of the target devices to which the snmpUser
has access.
For instructions on adding an SNMP user, see the Octoware software online help program.
For more information on forcing an external switch on the Octet switch, refer to the
specific MIB file called AMX-MIB. This MIB file is available on the Octoware software
CD. You can also download the AMX-MIB file by visiting www.blackbox.com.
