An example of a DNS hostname is: snmptraps.foo.com. Since SNMP traps
are sent randomly from the SNMP agent, it makes sense to specify where
exactly the traps should be sent. You can have a maximum of three DNS
hostnames. Ensure you select the Enabled check box and select the
appropriate Host Type.
Click Save. The changes are saved to the Running Configuration and to the Startup
Configuration.
After new settings are saved, the corresponding processes may be stopped and
restarted. When this happens, the WAP device may lose connectivity. We
recommend that you change WAP device settings when it will least affect your
wireless clients.
An SNMP MIB view is a family of view subtrees in the MIB hierarchy. A view
subtree is identified by the pairing of an Object Identifier (OID) subtree value with a
bit string mask value. Each MIB view is defined by two sets of view subtrees,
included in or excluded from the MIB view. You can create MIB views to control the
OID range that SNMPv3 users can access.
The WAP Device supports a maximum of 16 views.
These notes summarize some critical guidelines regarding SNMPv3 view
configuration. Please read all the notes before proceeding.
A MIB view called all is created by default in the system. This view contains all
management objects supported by the system.
By default, view-all and view-none SNMPv3 views are created on the WAP device.
These views cannot be deleted or modified.
To configure an SNMP view:
Click SNMP > Views in the navigation window.
Configure the parameters:
• View Name—A name that identifies the MIB view. View names can contain
up to 32 alphanumeric characters.
