The SNMP page allows you to configure the DXi8500 to send status
messages using SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol). The
DXi8500 supports SNMP v1 and v2c.
SNMP works by sending messages, called protocol data units (PDUs), to
different parts of a network, or communities. SNMP compliant devices,
called agents, store data about themselves in Management Information
Bases (MIBs) and return this data to the SNMP requesters.
You can configure the DXi8500 to act as an agent and send traps to a
specified destination. You can also add SNMP community information.
To access the SNMP page, on the Notifications page, click the SNMP
tab.
The SNMP page contains the following tabs:
• Destinations
• Community
• Test
Destinations
The Destinations page allows you to manage the destinations the
DXi8500 sends SNMP traps to. You can add, edit, and delete SNMP
destinations, and you can specify the types of traps to send.
To access the Destinations page, on the SNMP page, click the
Destinations tab (see
Chapter 9: DXi8500 Configuration
Figure 227 on page 410).
