SNMP settings
SNMP is a protocol for managing devices on networks. When you enable SNMP in the
menu, network management systems can retrieve recorder status information from the
recorder via SNMP.
When you set the trap address and trap port in the recorder menu to the network
management system’s IP address and port number, and set up the network
management system as trap receiver, trap notifications (such as startup) are sent from
the recorder to the network management system.
Before configuring this function, you must first install the SNMP software.
To configure SNMP protocol settings:
1. From the menu toolbar, click Network Settings > SNMP.
2. Check the Enable SNMP box.
3. Enter the required settings.
