Using Snmp Set To Send Commands To The Ra 6300; Table B-17. Supported Snmp Commands - Bay Networks 6300 Supplement Manual

Remote Annex 6300 Supplement to the Remote Annex Administrator's Guide for UNIX

Table B-17. Supported SNMP Commands

Action Description
get Retrieves the value of a specific object from one of the
supported MIBs.
get-next Traverses the MIB tree to retrieve the next object's management
information.
set Modifies the values of MIB objects. The RA 6300 private
enterprise MIB and several objects in the standard MIBs allow
you to configure the RA 6300 from an SNMP management
station on the network rather than using the na utility or CLI
admin command.
trap Asynchronously reports significant events.
When the allow_snmp_sets parameter is enabled, the RA 6300 accepts
SNMP set commands from any source and processes them. When
disabled, the RA 6300 rejects all SNMP set commands; the RA 6300
SNMP agent returns the error no such name for the first object in the set
command (for more details, see arap_v42bis on page C-41).
The specifics of using the SNMP commands depend on the management
station (see your SNMP management station documentation). The MIB
definitions in the files provided in the directory /annex_root/src/snmp
must be compiled and included in your management station database
before you can manage the RA 6300.

Using SNMP set to Send Commands to the RA 6300

The private enterprise MIB objects allow you to change the configuration
of the RA 6300. These configuration changes do not take effect until the
RA 6300 is rebooted.
