Snmp Community Strings; Snmp Traps - Comtech EF Data LPOD Series Installation And Operation Manual

4.2.2 SNMP Community Strings

In SNMP v1/v2c, the SNMP Community String is sent unencrypted in the
SNMP packets. Caution must be taken by the network administrator to ensure
that SNMP packets travel only over a secure and private network if security is
a concern.
The LPOD uses Community Strings as a password scheme that provides authentication before
gaining access to the router agent's MIBs. They are used to authenticate users and determine
access privileges to the SNMP agent. The LPOD defines three Community Strings for SNMP
access:
•
Read Community
•
Write Community
•
Trap Community
Type the SNMP Community String into the user-supplied MIB Browser or Network Node
Management software.
For correct SNMP operation, the LPOD MIB files must be used with the
associated version of the LPOD M&C. See the LPOD FW Release Notes for
information on the required FW/SW compatibility.

4.2.3 SNMP Traps

The LPOD SNMP agent supports both SNMPv1 and v2c. The LPOD Traps file
needs to be compiled only if SNMPv1 traps are to be used.
The LPOD has the ability to send out SNMP traps both when a fault occurs and when a fault
clears in the unit. You may configure which style of traps the LPOD sends by using the
lpodSNMPTrapVersion OID.
The LPOD supports the following MIB2 SNMPv1 traps and v2 notifications:
MIB2 SNMPv1 trap: Authentication Failure
MIB2 SNMPv2 notifications: Authentication Failure
The LPOD supports the following Faults SNMPv1 traps and v2 notifications:
Faults SNMPv1 traps:
