User Manual
3. Select the Manager Protocol. SNMP is generally a UDP-based protocol though infrequently it uses
TCP instead.
4. Enter the host address of the SNMP Network Manager into the Manager Address field.
5. Enter the TCP/IP port number into the Manager Trap Port field (default =162).
6. Select the Version to use. The console server SNMP agent supports SNMP v1, v2 and v3
7. Enter the Community name for SNMP v1 or SNMP v2c. Set a community for either SNMP v1 or v2c
traps to work. An SNMP community is the group to which devices and management stations running
SNMP belong and defines where information is sent. SNMP default communities are private for Write
and public for Read.
8. Configure SNMP v3 if required. For SNMP v3 messages, the user’s details and security level must
match what the receiving SNMP Network Manager is expecting. SNMP v3 mandates that the
message is rejected unless the SNMPv3 user sending the trap already exists in the user database on
the SNMP Manager. The user database in a SNMP v3 application is referenced by a combination of
the username and the Engine ID for the given SNMP application you are talking to.
o Enter the Engine ID for the user sending messages as a hex number e.g.
0x8000000001020304.
