Configuration Guide - System Management
l To configure a destination IPv6 address for the alarms and error codes sent from the device,
Step 6 (Optional) Run:
snmp-agent sys-info { contact contact | location location }
The equipment administrators contact information or location is configured.
This step is required for the NMS administrator to view contact information and locations of the
equipment administrator when the NM station manages many devices. This helps the NMS
administrator to contact the equipment administrators for fault location and rectification.
Step 7 (Optional) Run:
snmp-agent packet max-size byte-count
The maximum size of an SNMP packet that the device can receive or send is set.
By default, the maximum size of an SNMP packet that the device can receive or send is 1500
bytes.
After the maximum size is set, the device discards any SNMP packet that is larger than the set
size.
Step 8 Run:
commit
The configuration is committed.
----End
Follow-up Procedure
After the configuration is complete, basic communication can be conducted between the NM
station and managed device.

If finer device management is required, follow directions below to configure the managed
device:
Issue 01 (2011-10-15)
the parameter udp-port can be used to specify a non-well-known UDP port number. This
ensures communication between the NM station and managed device.
– public-net: If the alarms sent from the managed device to the NM station need to be
transmitted over a public network, the parameter public-net needs to be configured.
– vpn-instance: If the alarms sent from the managed device to the NM station need to be
transmitted over a private network, the parameter vpn-instance vpn-instance-name needs
to be used to specify a VPN that takes over the sending task.
– securityname: Identifies the alarm sender, which helps you learn the alarm source.
run:
snmp-agent target-host trap ipv6 { address udp-domain ipv6-address } [ udp-port
port-number ] params securityname security-name [ v2c ]
NOTE
An IPv6 network supports only traps, not informs.
Access control allows any NM station that uses the community name to monitor and manage
all the objects on the managed device.
The managed device sends alarms generated by the modules that are open by default to the
NM station.
