SNMP CONFIGURATION

SNMP, or Simple Network Management Protocol, is an Internet standard protocol for remote management. You
might use this instead of Enterprise Cloud Manager if you want to remotely manage a set of routers that include
both Cradlepoint and non-Cradlepoint products.
SNMP Configuration
• Enable SNMP: Selecting
"Enable SNMP" will reveal the
router's SNMP configuration
options.
Network Settings
• Enable SNMP on LAN:
Enabling SNMP on LAN will
make SNMP services available
on the LAN networks provided
by this router. SNMP will
not be available on guest or
virtual networks that do not
have administrative access.
• LAN port #: Use the LAN
port # field to configure the
LAN port number you wish
to access SNMP services on.
(Default: 161)
• Enable SNMP on WAN:
Enabling SNMP on WAN will
make SNMP services available
to the WAN interfaces of the
router.
• WAN port #: Use the WAN
port # field to configure
which publicly accessible
port you wish to make
SNMP services available on.
(Default: 161)
• SNMP Version
• SNMPv1: SNMP version 1 is the most basic version of SNMP. SNMPv1 will configure the router to
transmit with settings compatible with SNMP version 1 protocols.
• SNMPv2c: SNMP version 2c has the same features as v1 with some additional commands. SNMPv2c will
configure the router to use settings and data formatting compatible with SNMP version 2c.
• SNMPv3: SNMP version 3 includes all prior features with security available. SNMPv3 is the most secure
setting for SNMP. If you wish to configure traps then you must use SNMP version 3.
SNMP v1 & v2c Settings
• Get community string: The "Get community string" is used to read SNMP information from the router. This
string is like a password that is transmitted in regular text with no protection.
• Set community string: The "Set community string" is used when writing SNMP settings to the router. This
string is like a password. It is a good idea to make it different than the "Get community string."
