InfoPrint Manager for AIX: Procedures
v Does not work, the server concludes that the printer is turned off or is not
currently connected to the network. It leaves use-snmp set to "true" and
continues trying to establish an SNMP connection with the printer.
3. Check the actual destination attribute snmp-active. If it is "true", the printer
works with SNMP.
To use the InfoPrint Manager Administration Interface to check and set the
attributes:
1. From the menu bar, select Printer or Server, as appropriate.
2. Select Properties. You see the printer properties or server properties notebook.
3. Select the SNMP tab.
4. Check and set the appropriate attributes on the SNMP tab as explained in
"Procedures."
Do these steps to check and set the attributes:
1. Check these actual destination attributes:
v snmp-community-name
Indicates the name of the SNMP community that the printer belongs to. The
default is "public". The field on the SNMP tab is "Community name".
v snmp-write-community-name
Indicates the name of the SNMPv1 write community that the printer belongs
to. There is no default. The field on the SNMP tab is "Write community
name".
When the snmp-write-community-name attribute is set properly and you
have write permission to the actual destination, you can set the contact and
location information and execute device commands on the printer associated
with an actual destination.
v snmp-retry-count
Indicates the number of times the server should retry an SNMP request if it
fails. The higher the number, the more network traffic. Using a lower number
can improve performance. The default is "2". The field on the SNMP tab is
"Number of times to retry".
v snmp-timeout
Indicates the number of seconds the server should wait for the printer to
respond to an SNMP request. Using a lower number can improve
performance. The default is "5". The field on the SNMP tab is "Timeout".
v snmp-active-version
Specifies which version of SNMP InfoPrint Manager is using to communicate
with a printer. The value may be different than the value of snmp-version if
the SNMPv3 communication fails.
v snmpv3-username
Specifies the user the message is being exchanged for. This attribute is
SNMPv3 specific and must be set when changing the snmp-version attribute
to SNMPv3. The attribute value must match the same value set on the
printer.
v snmpv3-authentication-type
