Using SNMP

The GS728TS, GS728TPS, GS752TS, and GS752TPS switches software supports the
configuration of SNMP groups and users that can manage traps that the SNMP agent
generates. GS728TS, GS728TPS, GS752TS, and GS752TPS switches use both standard
public MIBs for standard functionality and private MIBs that support additional switch
functionality. All private MIBs begin with a "-" prefix. The main object for interface
configuration is in -SWITCHING-MIB, which is a private MIB. Some interface configurations
also involve objects in the public MIB, IF-MIB.
SNMP is enabled by default. The System > Management > System Information Web page,
which is the page that displays after a successful login, displays the information you need to
configure an SNMP manager to access the switch.
Any user can connect to the switch using the SNMPv3 protocol, but for authentication and
encryption, the switch supports only one user which is admin; therefore there is only one
profile that can be created or modified.
To configure authentication and encryption settings for the SNMPv3 admin profile by using
the Web interface:
1.
Navigate to the System > SNMP > SNMPv3 > User Configuration page.
2.
To enable authentication, select an Authentication Protocol option, which is either MD5 or
SHA.
3.
To enable encryption, select the DES option in the Encryption Protocol field. Then, enter
an encryption code of eight or more alphanumeric characters in the Encryption Key field.
4.
Click Apply.
To access configuration information for SNMPv1 or SNMPv2, click System > SNMP >
SNMPv1/v2 and click the page that contains the information to configure.
