SNMP-communities

4.3.5.1.1

SNMP authentifies requests by so called communities.

The public community has to be added to SNMP-read-requests and the private community to SNMP write requests. You can

see the SNMP communites like read/write passwords. SNMP v1 and v2 transmit the communities without encryption.

Therefore it is simple to spy out these communities. We recommend to use a DMZ or IP ACL.

MIB

4.3.5.1.2

All information, that can be requested or changed, the so called „Managed Objects", are descripted in „Management

Information Bases" (MIBs).

There are three MIBs, which can be requested from Expert Power Control 1000 / 1001:

„system", „interface" and „powerports"

„system" and „interface" are standardised MIBs (MIB-II).

„powerports" (GUDEADS-EPC-MIB::gadsEPC) was created especially for Expert Power Control 1000 / 1001.

At least, there are so called Object Identifiers (OID) subordinated to those three structures. An OID describes the location of

an information inside a MIB.

SNMP-traps

4.3.5.1.3

SNMP-Traps are system messages, sent via SNMP-protocol to different clients. On following events, Expert Power Control

1000 / 1001 will dispatch a SNMP-Trap:

Switching of the Power Ports

Min/Max-Alerts from the sensors
