The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a standard that is
defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). SNMP information
is encapsulated in a UDP and IP packet, which in turn, is encapsulated in
an appropriate protocol-specific frame.
This section describes the configurable options on the Management
Module (EME) that relate to SNMP management.
The Administration Consoles of individual switching modules also offer
SNMP commands that you may need to configure.
The EME interacts with SNMP to:
Respond to SNMP requests.
Generate SNMP traps.
Act as an agent in an SNMP-managed environment, enabling you to
configure your EME.
If you plan to manage your chassis using an SNMP workstation, you must
enable the 10BASE-T front panel Ethernet port and set the following
attributes for the EME:
IP connectivity
Subnet mask
IP address
Default gateway
Community table
Alerts (optional)
Trap receive

Assigning an IP Address to the EME

Use the
set ip ip_address
the EME.
Example:
CB9000> set ip ip_address 195.36.58.27 ethernet_port
command to assign a unique IP address to
