Configuration
This section explains how to use the SNMP on the network camera. The Simple Network Management Protocol is an application layer protocol
that facilitates the exchange of management information between network devices. It helps network administrators to remotely manage network
devices and find, solve network problems with ease.
SNMP configuration
The SNMP consists of the following three key components:
1. Manager: Network-Management Station (NMS), a server which executes applications
that monitor and control managed devices.
2. Agent: A network-management software module on a managed device which
transfers the status of managed devices to the NMS.
3. Managed device: A network node on a managed network (e.g., routers, switches,
bridges, hubs, computer hosts, printers, IP telephones, network cameras, web server,
and database).
Before configuring SNMP setting on this page, please enable your NMS first.
Enable SNMPv1, SNMPv2c: Select this option and enter the Read/Write community and
Read Only community names according to your NMS setting.
Enable SNMPv3: This option contains cryptographic security, a higher security level which
allows you to set the authentication password and the encryption password.
• Security name: According to your NMS setting, choose Read/Write or Read Only,
and enter the community name.
• Authentication type: Select either MD5 or SHA as the authentication method.
• Authentication password: Enter a password for authentication (at least 8 characters).
• Encryption password: Enter a password for encryption (at least 8 characters).
