Configuring Snmp; Enabling Snmp In The Cisco Access Registrar Server; Stopping The Master Agent - Cisco Access Registrar 4.2 Installation And Configuration Manual

Configuring SNMP

After you save and reload the CAR server configuration, the CAR server writes accounting messages to
the accounting.log file in the /opt/CSCOar/logs directory. The CAR server stores information in the
accounting.log file until a rollover event occurs. A rollover event is caused by the accounting.log file
exceeding a pre-set size, a period of time transpiring, or on a scheduled date.
When the rollover event occurs, the data in accounting.log is stored in a file named by the prefix
accounting, a date stamp (yyyymmdd), and the number of rollovers for that day. For example,
accounting-20081107-14 would be the 14th rollover on November 07, 2008.
The following shows the properties for a service called CiscoAccounting:
[ //localhost/Radius/Services/local-file ]
Configuring SNMP
Before you can perform SNMP configuration, you must first stop the SNMP master agent, then configure
your local snmpd.conf file. The snmpd.conf file is the configuration file which defines how the CAR
server's SNMP agent operates. The snmpd.conf file might contain any of the directives found in the
DIRECTIVES section.

Enabling SNMP in the Cisco Access Registrar Server

To enable SNMP on the Cisco AR server, launch aregcmd and set the
/Radius/Advanced/SNMP/Enabled property to TRUE.
[ //localhost/Radius/Advanced/SNMP ]

Stopping the Master Agent
