Snmp - Linksys LGS308 User Manual

• Link Local—The IPv6 address uniquely identifies hosts on a single network link. A
link local address has a prefix of FE80, is not routable, and can be used for
communication only on the local network. Only one link local address is supported.
If a link local address exists on the interface, this entry replaces the address in the
configuration.
• Link Local Interface—Select the link local interface (if IPv6 AddressType Link
Local is selected) from the list.
• Global—The IPv6 address is a global Unicast IPV6 type that is visible and
reachable from other networks.
• SNTP Server IP Address—Enter the SNTP server IP address. The format depends
on which address type was selected.
• SNTP Server Name—Select the name of the SNTP server from a list of well-known
NTP servers. If other is chosen, enter the name of an SNTP server in the adjacent
field.
• Poll Interval—Select to enable polling of the SNTP server for system time
information. All NTP servers that are registered for polling are polled, and the clock
is selected from the server with the lowest stratum level (distance from the
reference clock) that is reachable. The server with the lowest stratum is
considered to be the primary server. The server with the next lowest stratum is a
secondary server, and so forth. If the primary server is down, the device polls all
servers with the polling setting enabled, and selects a new primary server with the
lowest stratum.
5. Click Apply. The STNP server is added, and you are returned to the main page.

SNMP

This section describes the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) feature that provides a
method for managing network devices.
SNMP Versions
The device functions as an SNMP agent and supports SNMPv1, v2, and v3. It also reports system
events to trap receivers using the traps defined in the supported MIBs (Management Information
Base).
• SNMPv1 and v2
To control access to the system, a list of community entries is defined. Each community
entry consists of a community string and its access privilege. The system responds only to
SNMP messages specifying the community which has the correct permissions and correct
operation.
SNMP agents maintain a list of variables that are used to manage the device. These
variables are defined in the Management Information Base (MIB).
