Configuring SNMP Agents
The systems management software supports the SNMP systems management standard on all supported operating
systems. The SNMP support may or may not be installed depending on the operating system and how the operating
system was installed. An installed supported systems management protocol standard, such as SNMP, is required before
installing the systems management software.
Configure the SNMP agent to change the community name, enable set operations, and send traps to a management
station. To configure the SNMP agent for proper interaction with management applications, perform the procedures
described in the Server Administrator User’s Guide .
