SNMP and MIBs

You can remotely monitor some features of the router using Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP).
For information about the MIBs supported by the router, see Appendix C:
SNMP MIBs in the AR400 Series Router Software Reference.
The SNMP agent is disabled by default. To enable SNMP, enter the command:
ENABLE SNMP
SNMP communities are the main configuration item in the router's SNMP
agent, and are defined in terms of a list of IP addresses which define the SNMP
application entities (trap hosts and management stations) in the community. To
create an SNMP community, enter the command:
CREATE SNMP COMMUNITY=name [ACCESS={READ|WRITE}]
[TRAPHOST=ipadd] [MANAGER=ipadd]
[OPEN={ON|OFF|YES|NO|TRUE|FALSE}]
The community name is a security feature and you should keep it secure.
To enable the generation of authentication failure traps by the SNMP agent
whenever an SNMP authentication failure occurs, enter the command:
ENABLE SNMP AUTHENTICATE_TRAP
To enable the generation of link state traps for a specified interface, enter the
command:
ENABLE INTERFACE=interface LINKTRAP
where interface is the name of an interface, such as "vlan11".
For more information see the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
chapter and the Interfaces chapter in the AR400 Series Router Software Reference.
To display the current state and configuration of the SNMP agent, enter the
command:
SHOW SNMP
For a detailed description of the output from the SHOW SNMP command, see
the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) chapter in the AR400 Series
Router Software Reference.
