3.4.6 SNMP Settings
You can enable SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) service on the NAS
and enter the trap address of the SNMP management stations (SNMP manager), e.g.
PC with SNMP software installed. When an event, warning, or error occurs on the
NAS, the NAS (as an SNMP agent) reports the real-time alert to the SNMP
management stations.
The fields are described as below:
Field Description
SNMP Trap Level Select the kind of information to be sent to the SNMP
management stations.
Trap Address The IP address of the SNMP manager. You can enter up to
3 trap addresses.
SNMP MIB
(Management
Information Base)
The MIB is a type of database in ASCII text format used to
manage the NAS in the SNMP network. The SNMP manager
uses the MIB to determine the values or understand the
messages sent from the agent (NAS) within the network.
You can download the MIB and view it with any word
processor or text editor.
Community (SNMP
V1/V2)
An SNMP community string is a text string that acts as a
password. It is used to authenticate messages that are sent
between the management station and the NAS. The
community string is included in every packet that is
transmitted between the SNMP manager and the SNMP
agent.
SNMP V3 The NAS supports SNMP version 3. You can enter the
authentication and privacy settings if available.
