Assigning SNMP Parameters
Use the SNMP Configuration screen to display and modify
parameters for the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).
The switch includes an onboard SNMP agent which monitors the
status of its hardware, as well as the traffic passing through its
ports. A computer attached to the network, called a Network
Management Station (NMS), can be used to access this
information. Access rights to the onboard agent are controlled by
community strings. To communicate with the switch, the NMS
must first submit a valid community string for authentication. The
options for configuring community strings and related trap
functions are described in the following sections.
Use <TAB> or arrow keys to move, <Space> to scroll options.
