Configuring the NEC SNMP Agent for Windows 98 or
Windows 2000
The SNMP Agent is configured with the Windows Policy Editor. The
Policy Editor configures the traps, communities, and other policies.
Use the Policy Editor to configure the traps, communities, and other
policies as follows.
1.
In the Windows taskbar, click
Accessories
2.
At the "System Policy Editor," click
Registry
. Double click
Expand Network and expand SNMP to display the following list of
3.
policies.
Communities — Specifies one or more groups of hosts that this
!
computer belongs to and that can be managed with SNMP.
Permitted Managers — Limits the set of SNMP management
!
applications that can access this computer to those with the IP or
IPX addresses that the user provides.
Traps for "Public" Community — Limits the set of computers
!
that receive traps from this computer to those with the IP or IPX
addresses that the user provides.
For an SNMP management console, such as the NEC SNMP
Desktop Manager and HP OpenView, IP addresses (for example,
157.123.176.100) must be entered in the Traps for "Public
Community" to receive traps from the NEC SNMP agents.
For the NEC SNMP Agent to send a trap to the NEC SNMP
Desktop Manager, the port number can be configured from the
registry:

Agent\Port Number"
