Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)

Also see SNMP on page 58.
General Information
The PortServer provides a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) agent. This agent
implements the current standard Management Information Base II (MIB-II) as defined in
RFC1213. In addition, this agent also supports the Character-based MIB (RFC1316) and the
RS232-like MIB (RFC1317).

Configuring the SNMP Agent

The SNMP agent is configured via the snmp command. Entering snmp with no options, as in:
snmp
prints out a list of the current SNMP configuration. The result is the following:
#> snmp
In this example, the SNMP Daemon is running, so the PortServer will answer SNMP requests
from a management station. Authentication traps are not being sent, but the other standard traps
are being sent to IP address 199.99.88.1. The values for the System portion of MIB II are set to
Bill Jones' name and location. See the SNMP command description on page 58 for information
on setting the values.
