SNMP
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is used in network management systems to monitor
network-attached devices for conditions that require administrative attention. This protocol consists of
a set of standards for network management including an application layer, a database schema, and a
set of data objects. Agents, or software modules, reside in the SNMPv3 engine of the printer. A
manager is an SNMPv3 management application, such as OpenView, that is used to monitor and
configure devices on the network. The agent responds to read (GET) and write (SET) requests from the
manager and can also generate alert messages, or Traps, based on certain events.
SNMP settings can be configured in CentreWare Internet Services. You can also enable or disable
Authentication Failure Generic Traps on the printer. SNMPv3 can be enabled to create an encrypted
channel for secure printer management.
Enabling SNMP
1. In CentreWare Internet Services, click Properties > Connectivity > Port Settings.
2. Select Enabled next to SNMP.
Configuring SNMP
1. In CentreWare Internet Services, click Properties > Connectivity > Protocols > SNMP
Configuration.
2. Under SNMP Properties, select Enable SNMP v1/v2c Protocols or Enable SNMP v3 Protocol,
then click Apply.
Note: You must click Apply to save your settings or the protocol will remain disabled.
3. Under Authentication Failure Generic Traps, select Enabled for the printer to generate a trap for
every SNMP request that is received by the printer and contains an invalid community name.
4. Click Apply. For details, see SNMP Advanced Settings on page 25.
Editing SNMP v1/v2c Properties
Note: Xerox recommends that you change the SNMP v1/v2c public and private community names
from the default values for security purposes.
1. In CentreWare Internet Services, click Properties > Connectivity > Protocols > SNMP
Configuration.
2. Under SNMP Properties, click Edit SNMP v1/v2c Properties.
3. Type a name up to 256 characters for the Community Name (Read Only) or use the default value
of public. GET returns the password for the SNMP GET requests to the printer. Applications that
obtain information from the printer by using SNMP, such as CentreWare Internet Services, use this
password.
