Configuring SNMP Agents

SNMP-compliant devices, called agents, store data about themselves in
Management Information Bases (MIBs) and return this data to the SNMP
managers. See Viewing the KX II-101-V2 MIB
information on viewing the KX II-101-V2 MIB.
KX II-101-V2 supports SNMP logging for SNMP v1/v2c and/or v3. SNMP
v1/v2c defines message formats and protocol operations when SNMP
logging is enabled. SNMP v3 is a security extension of SNMP that
provides user authentication, password management and encryption.
To configure SNMP agents:
1. Choose Device Settings > Device Services. The Device Service
Settings page opens.
2. Provide the following SNMP agent identifier information for the MIB-II
System Group objects:
a. System Name - the SNMP agent's name/device name
b. System Contact - the contact name related to the device
c. System Location - the location of the device
3. Select either or both Enable SNMP v1/v2c and Enable SNMP v3. At
least one option must be selected. Required
4. Complete the following fields for SNMP v1/v2c (if needed):
a. Community - the device's community string
b. Community Type - grant either Read-Only or Read-Write access
to the community users
Note: An SNMP community is the group to which devices and
management stations running SNMP belong. It helps define where
information is sent. The community name is used to identify the
group. The SNMP device or agent may belong to more than one
SNMP community.
5. Complete the following fields for SNMP v3 (if needed):
a. Select Use Auth Passphrase if one is needed. If the Privacy
Passphrase is required, the 'Use Auth Passphrase' allows you to
have the same passphrase for both without having to re-enter
the Auth Passphrase.
b. Security Name - the username or service account name of the
entity communicating with the SNMP agent (up to 32 characters)
