Overview

About SNMP

Tools such as TANDBERG Management Suite
(TMS) or HP OpenView may act as SNMP
Network Management Systems (NMS). They
allow you to monitor your network devices,
including the VCS, for conditions that might
require administrative attention.
The VCS supports the most basic MIB-II tree
(.1.3.6.1.2.1) as defined in
RFC 1213
[23].
The information made available by the VCS
includes the following:
system uptime
system name
location
contact
interfaces
disk space, memory, and other machine-
specific statistics.
To allow the VCS to be monitored by an SNMP
NMS (including TMS), you must
Enable
SNMP
on the VCS and provide the name of the
SNMP community
within which it resides. You
may optionally provide the name of a
System
contact
and the physical
Location
of the
system for reference by administrators when
following up on queries.
By default, SNMP is
Disabled
with a
SNMP
community name
of public.
The VCS does not support SNMP traps
or SNMP sets, therefore it cannot be
managed via SNMP.
SNMP is disabled by default, because
!
of the potentially sensitive nature of the
information involved. Do not enable
SNMP on a VCS on the public internet or in any
other environment where you do not want to
expose internal system information.
