About the CSX200

System Passwords

System passwords allow you to control access to the CSX200 by establishing three passwords.
Each password provides varying levels of access to the CSX200. The default password for each
access level is pre-set to public. If you do not wish to establish a password, press ENTER, the
default password is automatically selected.
The following definitions explain each of the three levels of access:
read-only — This access level allows reading of device parameters not including system
passwords.
read-write — This access level allows editing of some device configuration parameters not
including changing system passwords.
This access level allows full management privileges. At this level you must access
super-user —
the CSX200 to run QuickSET.

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)

The CSX200 provides SNMP agent support for the following: standard and Enterprise Specific
Management Information Bases (MIBs), and support for standard and Enterprise Specific SNMP
Traps. SNMP is also used internally for configuration of the CSX200. The active SNMP agent
within the CSX200 accepts SNMP requests for status, statistics and configuration updates.
Communication with the SNMP agent occurs over the LAN or WAN connection. Any
management application using SNMP over UDP/IP has access to the local SNMP agent.
