Appendix E. Management via SNMP
The STM SatLink VSAT can be monitored and managed using the standardized Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP).
The management information that can be collected and controlled by an SNMP management application
is contained in so-called Management Information Databases (MIBs). The STM SatLink VSAT supports
two such MIBs:
• MIB-II (relevant parts)
• STM proprietary DVB-RCS MIB
MIBs are components in the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) defined Structure of Management
Information (SMI) and relevant information can be found at www.ietf.org
. SMI version 2 as defined by
IETF STD58 is supported.
E.1 SNMP version compliance
The SatLink VSAT supports SNMP version 2c as defined by IETF in RFC 1901 and RFC 3417.
In accordance with SNMPv2c, the access rights associated with the attached community name is checked
when an SNMP message arrives. The predefined access rights for the given community name together
with the predefined maximum access rights of the object ID(s) addressed by the SNMP message
determines the effective access rights. The STM SatLink VSAT is also equipped with optional enhanced
SNMP access control as described later.
The STM SatLink VSAT does not support traps.
