MX2800 M13 Multiplexer User Manual

Write Community Name

This field is used to enter the authentication strings used for SNMP management. Match the MX2800 to
the SNMP manager for write privileges.

Trap Community Name

This field is used to enter the identification string used for trap management. This string accompanies all
traps transmitted by the MX2800.

System Name

This value is equivalent to the sysName item defined in RFC1213. The value is an administratively-
assigned name for the managed node. By convention, this is the node's fully-qualified domain name.

Network Date/Time Option

The MX2800 is capable of having the date and time provisioned from a remote server using one of two
supported protocols: SNTP version 3 (per RFC1769) and Network Time (per RFC868).
Several options are available for provisioning this feature, all of which are accessible only via menus by
users with Admin-level privileges. These options reside in the System Management menu.

State

This option sets the mode or protocol used to retrieve the date and time from the server. Possible values are
Disabled, SNTP, and Net Time. When the State option is set to Disabled, the user should explicitly set the
date and time locally (via menus, TL1, or SNMP). If the State option is set to SNTP or Net Time, then the
product prevents any attempt to set the time locally. The default value is Disabled.

Server IP Address

This option sets the IP address of the server to be queried for the date and time.

Refresh Period

This option sets the length of time between queries to the server. The available values range are as follows:
• 1 minutes interval
• 5 minutes interval
• 10 minutes interval
• 15 minutes interval (default)
• 20 minutes interval
• 25 minutes interval
• 30 minutes interval
• 35 minutes interval
