Configuring the SNMP Manager

Command Function
defaults
Returns the network interface setting to the default
setting.
The network interface can be set by uploading a network configuration
file to the printer via FTP.
1. Using FTP, log on to the printer's FTP interface (use root as your
name and pass as the password)
2. get the printer's configuration file config.
3. Using a plain text editor, change the settings of the configuration file.
4. FTP the printer and put config CONFIG. Ensure that the uppercase
CONFIG argument is attached to the put command or the settings
will not be saved.
5. Restart the printer.
Note: If you attempt to put a config file with an incorrect format, the
printer will reset the network interface.
For an explanation of the parameters, see "Sample Network
Configuration File" on page 167.
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) can be used for the
remote monitoring of the network interface.
SNMP is the standard network management protocol. In order to use
SNMP, you must first set up the TCP/IP configuration of your printer,
including protocols, database structure specifications and the data object
group.
The SNMP manager software performs the actual management. This
manager sends inquiries or instructions for a device, or receives
notification that uses a specific event in the device as a trigger. The object
is contained in the database called the Management Information Base
(MIB).
The MIB file is distributed on the T8006/T8306 CD-ROM and is
downloadable from the printer through FTP.
The printer's stored MIB file is described in ASN.1 format. To upgrade
the printer with a newer Tally MIB file, use FTP to replace the older file.
