B.7 Using SNMP
SNMP stands for Simple Network Management Protocol. A
full description of SNMP is beyond the scope of this manual.
However, if you're familiar with SNMP, you can use this as a
troubleshooting tool.
As the name suggests SNMP is a protocol designed to allow
control of a whole network. The Terminal Server provides an
SNMP agent, this means that it responds to SNMP requests. It
does not have the facility to generate SNMP requests to
monitor another system.
A host machine running the client SNMP package can
request any of the defined variables. It can also set a limited
number of the terminal server variables thus allowing
configuration of the unit to be done remotely.
The SNMP trap function is set up using the Trap function
screen. This is accessed from the Administration Menu .
