SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol)

MIBs (Management Information Base)

Traps
19-82
•
The RMX only switches between MPM, MPM+ and MPMx Card
Configuration Modes if MPM / MPM+ / MPMx cards are removed or
swapped while it is running.
• The Card Configuration Mode switch occurs during the next restart.
•
Installing or swapping MPM / MPM+ / MPMx cards while the system is off
will not cause a mode switch when the system is restarted – it will restart in
the Card Configuration Mode that was active previous to powering down.
•
From Version 7.1, MPM media cards are not supported.
SNMP enables managing and monitoring of the MCU status by external
managing systems, such as HP OpenView or through web applications.
The RMX's implementation of SNMPv3 is FIPS 140 compliant.
MIBs are a collection of definitions, which define the properties of the
managed object within the device to be managed. Every managed device
keeps a database of values for each of the definitions written in the MIB.
The SNMP systems poll the MCU according to the MIB definitions.
The MCU is able to send Traps to different managers. Traps are messages
that are sent by the MCU to the SNMP Manager when an event such as
MCU Reset occurs.
Guidelines
• Version 1, Version 2 and Version 3 traps are supported.
• When SNMPv3 is selected only SNMPv3 Queries and Traps receive
responses.
• A mixture of Version 1, Version 2 and Version 3 traps is not permitted.
