Snmp Configuration - Sans Digital Mobileraid MR8X Detailed User's Manual

SAS-to-SATA II RAID Subsystem

4.5.4 SNMP Configuration

The SNMP gives users independence from the proprietary network management schemes of
some manufacturers and SNMP is supported by many WAN and LAN manufacturers enabling
true LAN/ WAN management integration.
To set the SNMP function, move the cursor to the main menu and click on the SNMP
Configuration link. The RAID subsystem's SNMP Configurations screen will be
shown. Select the desired function and set the preferred option.
SNMP Trap Configurations: Type in the SNMP Trap IP Address box the IP address of
the host system where SNMP traps will be sent. The SNMP Port is set to 162 by default.
SNMP System Configuration:
Community: Type the SNMP community. The default is public.
(1) sysContact.0, (2) sysLocation.0, and (3) sysName.0: SNMP parameter (31
bytes max). If these 3 categories are configured and when an event occurs, SNMP will
send out a message that includes the 3 categories within the message. This allows
user to easily define which RAID unit is having problem.
SNMP Trap Notification Configurations: Select the desired option.
