6.3 SNMP support
The EXPLORER 8000 series supports SNMP v2 requests to retrieve configuration and
present settings. SNMP is always enabled on all Ethernet interfaces. The SNMP community
string is public. The EXPLORER 8000 series offers via SNMP most of the data that are
available from the DASHBOARD web pages. Detailed documentation about supported OIDs
can be found in the MIB file for your VSAT system.
The MIB entries are grouped as shown below:
• System configuration
• Navigation coordinates
• Antenna pointing
• Dashboard and profile
• Tracking receiver
You can download the ACU MIB file directly from the ACU:
1. Go to the HELPDESK page.
2. Click the link Download MIB file
3. Save the file on your computer.
You can also download the ACU MIB from Cobham eSupport web site.
None of the SNMP values need to be polled more often than once a minute.
Polling SNMP values more frequently will impact the performance of the ACU.
