Return to the Define System Parameter menu and select item 9, SNMP Agent Setup.
Note:
If you get the message that SNMP is not found it could mean one of two things:
1. The SNMP hardware option is not installed in the ETU-01A
2. The SNMP agent requires about 20-30 seconds to boot, until then it may not be recognized.
SNMP Agent Setup background
The SNMP agent is a 32 bit embedded processor system that runs a kernel, network layer and
SNMP process that is linked to the ETU-01A hardware. When used with proprietary MIB 2 file, a
network management software will be able to configure all settings, read performance and alarm
information, and receive meanings of unsolicited trap (alarm) messages from the ETU-01A.
The settings of the Agent require IP address, subnet mask and default gateway. Additionally,
any manager must have its IP address also configured in the Agent along with community string
settings for Read/Write and Read Only.
The Agent also supports software upgrade by configuring a TFTP server's IP address and
giving the filename of the upgrade image. The image is transferred by TFTP, checksum confirmed,
flash erased and then written with the new image.
The SNMP Agent Setup Menu contains all the items to configure the above.
Select item 1, SNMP Agent Config.
