7.1.2 Supported SNMP Features
The PROFINET Controller supports:
• SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c
• MIB-II (see RFC 1213 for details)
• LLDP MIB (see IEEE 802.1AB for details)
• LLDP 802.3 Extension MIB (see IEEE 802.1AB for details)
The PROFINET Controller does not:
• Support SNMPv3.
• Provide asynchronous notifications via SNMP.
• Generate SNMP TRAP or INFORM messages.
7.1.3 SNMP Read Access
SNMP provides standard commands that allow a client to read SNMP data. The PROFINET Controller supports
these commands:
GET
GETNEXT
GETBULK
The SNMP Community strings supported for read access are:
• public
18
• pub
18
• icmp
18
• private
18
• priv
18
• ge_pnc
19
These community strings are fixed and cannot be changed.
7.1.4 SNMP Write Access
SNMP should not be used to change parameters on the PROFINET Controller module.
• For PNC001 firmware version 2.05 and earlier, the SNMP SET command succeeds for the variables in some
MIBs/groups, but fails for the variables in other MIBs/groups. Changes made using SNMP SET change only
the SNMP variable itself, do not affect the PNC001 module operation, and are not saved across a power-
cycle or restart. For example, setting the sysName variable from the System Group does not change the
Device Name of the PNC001 module.
• The SNMP Set command for PNC001 firmware version 2.10 and later is disabled.
18
Requires PNC firmware version 2.05 or later.
19
Requires PNC firmware version 2.10 or later.
