Using SNMP

The managed switch software supports the configuration of SNMP groups and users that can
manage traps that the SNMP agent generates.
The managed switch 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 Information screen, which is the screen that
displays when you log in, displays the information that you need to configure an SNMP
manager to access the switch.
Any user can connect to the switch using the SNMP v3 protocol, but for authentication and
encryption, the switch supports only one user, which is admin; therefore, only one profile can
be created or modified.
