Managing or monitoring of the MCU by SNMP is done by external
management systems such as HP OpenView or through web applications.
These systems poll the MCU according to the MIB definitions. In addition,
the MCU is able to send Traps to different managers. Traps are messages that
are sent by the MCU to the SNMP Manager when an event such as MCU
Reset occurs. The addresses of the Managers monitoring the MCU and other
security information are defined in the MGC Manager application and are
saved on the MCU's hard disk. Only operators defined as a Superuser
(Administrator) can define or modify the SNMP security parameters in the
MGC Manager application.
To define or modify the SNMP parameters:
1. Connect to an MCU.
2. Right-click the MCU icon, and then click SNMP.
