ACCULINK 316x DSU/CSU
Configuring the 3160/3164 DSU/CSU for
SNMP Management
To configure a 3160/3164 DSU/CSU for management
by an SNMP management system you must,
Select and configure the port (COM or MODEM)
providing the link to the SNMP management
system.
Set the Internet Protocol (IP) address needed to
access the device (either for the COM port or the
MODEM port).
Select the link layer protocol (PPP or SLIP) for the
port.
Specify the two community names that are allowed
to access the device's Management Information
Base (MIB).
Configure the device to send traps to the SNMP
manager, if desired.
Differences Using the Async Terminal: When SNMP is
selected from the main/configuration/edit menu, the menu
selection structure changes slightly from the front panel.
Specifically, the Gen selection (from the front panel) is
split into two logical groups: System Options and
Modem and Communication Port Options. Trap (from
the front panel) appears as Trap Options on the async
terminal interface. (See Figures 3-14 and 3-15)
In the SNMP System Options screen as shown in
Figure 3-20, a maximum of 40 characters can be entered
per field. If more than 40 characters are required, then
scrolling on the line is supported. To scroll, move the
cursor to the end of the line. To clear a field, select Clear.
This action sets the field to a null string, A message
appears requiring you to verify that a clear is intended.
After executing Clear, the cursor is located at the
beginning of the cleared field.

Figure 3-20. SNMP System Options Screen

Selecting the Port

The 3160/3164 DSU/CSU supports a communications
link between the DSU/CSU and an external SNMP
management system or network device (e.g., router) on
either the COM port or the MODEM port. Use the
MODEM port when configuring devices through a dial-up
modem. Use the COM port for direct connections. Either
the COM or the MODEM port can be configured as the
communications link, but only one port at a time can be
configured as the link. The MODEM port can support
either synchronous or asynchronous PPP, or asynchronous
SLIP at data rates of up to 2400 bps. The COM port can
support either synchronous or asynchronous PPP, or
asynchronous SLIP at data rates of up to 19,200 bps.
