The SNMP SET-UP MENU allows the display and configuration of the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
parameters for the router. For information on the routers compliance with the SNMP Management Information Bases
(MIBs) and details of the proprietary MIB, please refer to the MIB files on the CD-ROM included with the unit.
The SNMP Set Up Menu contains two default communities:
- "public" which is a read-only community accessible by all Network Management Station (NMS) addresses
- "GUI_Config" which is a read-write community accessible by all NMS addresses
1 - Edit Community
The Edit Community option takes you to the Define Community Menu, where the router's agent and NMS are brought
under a management community.
2 - Message Size
The Message Size option allows the setting of the maximum message size sent by the router's SNMP agent.
Default: [1472 bytes]
Range: 484 to 1472 bytes
Considerations:
The message size sent by the router is determined by what the NMS can accept. The default size of 1472 bytes,
combined with the "overhead," totals the maximum Ethernet frame size.
