Using the Equipment
3.5 SNMP
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is available as a standard feature on
all of the RX8000 IRDs.
SNMP is a network protocol used to monitor network-attached devices for conditions
that warrant administrative attention. SNMP consists of a set of standards for
network management, including an application layer protocol, a database schema,
and a set of data objects.
The RX8000 IRDs support SNMP Versions 2C and 3.
3.5.1 Setting Up SNMP Remote Control
SNMP remote control is enabled by default.
To set up SNMP remote control:
1. Ensure the Web Browser Interface is connected and working and switch over to
the Advanced View mode.
2. From the browser SNMP tab, select the version of SNMP required (V2C or V3).
3. Ensure the trap community, read-write community, and read-only community are
configured as public or private in the same way as the MIB browse or SNMP
application being used.
