Microsemi SyncServer S300 - Configuring SNMP

Configuring SNMP
See the Setting the Time Manually (on page 177) topic. While reading the text, substitute
"UTC time" with "non-UTC time".
Synchronizing to non-UTC NTP
1.
On the TIMING - HW Clock page, disable all of the Input References and click the APPLY but-
ton.
2.
On the NTP - Config page, delete UTC-based NTP associations that have the following
roles: server, peer, broadcastclient, and multicastclient.
3. Add non-UTC server, peer, broadcastclient, and multicastclient associations.
Also see: Using NTP (on page 154).
Configuring SNMP
On the SyncServer, SNMP:
n Responds to requests for configuration and operational information.
n
Sends traps in response to events, as configured on the ADMIN - Alarms page.
n Cannot be used to change the SyncServer’s configuration (is read only).
SNMP-related pages on the SyncServer:
n
WIZARDS - SNMP: Configure SNMP quickly (SNMP v1 and v2c only).
n
NETWORK - SNMP: Configure SNMP and add v3 users.
n
NETWORK - SNMP Traps: Configure trap recipients.
n
ADMIN - Alarms: Select which events generate SNMP traps.
n
SERVICES - Startup: Stop or start the SNMP daemon, and enable/disable it from starting
automatically when the SyncServer reboots.
Configuring the SyncServer for SNMP queries
For SNMP v1/v2c queries, specify a Read Community string on the NETWORK - SNMP page.
For SNMP v3 queries, create v3 Users on the NETWORK - SNMP page.
Additional standard SNMP values, such as sysLocation and sysContact are also specified
on the NETWORK - SNMP page.
The SyncServer Product CD includes a copy of the SyncServer custom MIB file that can be
loaded into SNMP management stations.
Configuring the SyncServer to send SNMP Traps
To configure SNMP to send SNMP traps:
n
Specify trap recipients on the NETWORK - Traps page.
1. Select SNMP v1, v2c, or v3.
2. (Optional) For v1 and v2c traps, specify a community string that will be
included in the trap PDU.
3. For v3 traps, create a v3 user for the destination management console. Spe-
cify an 8-character Auth phrase. (Optional) Specify a Priv phrase.
