Remote Management

You can remotely configure, upgrade, and check the status of your wireless access point by using
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) or by using the command-line interface (CLI) via
a secure shell (SSH) or (secure) Telnet connection.

SNMP Remote Management

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) forms part of the internet protocol suite as defined
by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). SNMP is used in network management systems to
monitor network-attached devices for conditions that warrant administrative attention.
SNMP exposes management data in the form of variables on the managed systems, which describe
the system configuration. These variables can then be queried (and sometimes set) by managing
applications
Enable SNMP to allow SNMP network management software such as HP OpenView to manage
the wireless access point via the SNMPv1/v2 protocol.
To enable remote management:
1. Log in to the wireless access point at its default LAN address of http://192.168.0.229 with its
default user name of admin and default password of password, or using whatever password
and LAN address you have chosen for the wireless access point.
2. Select Maintenance > Remote Management > SNMP. The SNMP Settings screen displays
(see Figure 4-14 on page
4-16
4-17).
