Enable and Configure SNMP

Overview Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a protocol for
monitoring the health and welfare of your library by using integrated
alerts. When SNMP is enabled, the Other Settings pane in the System Setup
screen includes options for enabling the SNMP agent and configuring
SNMP settings.
Network-Based Library Management If you are using a network‐based
library monitor/management application other than the library's BlueScale
user interface, you may need to identify the library's SNMP settings to the
application. These settings include the read, write, and broadcast
community strings.
Configure SNMP Use the following steps to enable and configure SNMP.
1.
2. Select Enable SNMP Agent to enable SNMP in the library and click Save.

Note: Spectra Logic libraries use SNMPv2c.
Access the System Setup screen (see Accessing the System Setup Screen
on page 94) and scroll down to the Other Settings pane.
The System Setup screen refreshes to include an option for editing the
SNMP settings.
The agent returns information contained in the library's Management
Information Base (MIB) to the workstation used to manage the
network. The MIB defines what information is available from the
library over the network. The MIB file is available for download from
the Downloads > Tools page of the support portal.
