What Is SNMP

OL-8122-01
This is the time zone that the switch automatically read from the network
management station or was manually set during initial setup.
The check box is automatically enabled only when the selected time zone is
in U.S., Europe, or Australia. This check box is disabled for all of the other
time zones.
This section is for advanced users with experience in managing networks.
These are the concepts and procedures for using SNMP:

The switch supports Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) versions 1,
2C, and 3. SNMP allows the switch to be remotely managed through other
network management software.
SNMP is based on three concepts: SNMP managers (or management stations),
SNMP agents (or network devices), and the Management Information Base
(MIB). For the MIBs supported on the switch, see the
on page 3-28.
The SNMP manager runs SNMP management software. Network devices to be
managed, such as bridges, routers, servers, and workstations, are equipped with
an agent software module. The agent provides access to a local MIB of objects
that reflects the resources and activity of the device. The agent also responds to
manager commands to retrieve values from the MIB and to set values in the MIB.
The agent and MIB are on the switch. To configure SNMP on the switch, you
define the relationship between the manager and the agent.
