Parameter Description
SNMP Agent
It specifies whether to enable the SNMP agent function of the AP. By default, it is
disabled.
An SNMP manager and the SNMP agent can communicate with each other only
when their SNMP versions are the same. Currently, the SNMP agent function of the
AP supports SNMP V1 and SNMP V2C.
Administrator
It specifies the administrator’s name of the AP. The default name is Administrator.
You can change the administrator’s name if required.
Device Name
It specifies the device name of the AP. By default, the device name is Wireless
Access Point. You can change it if required.
You are recommended to change the AP name so that you can identify your
AP easily when managing the AP using SNMP.
Location
It specifies the location where the AP is used. You can change the location according
to your actual situation.

agent. The default password is public.
The SNMP agent function of the AP allows an SNMP manager to use the password
to read variables in the MIB of the AP.

SNMP agent. The default password is private.
