Configuring SNMP Agents and Communities (Required)
To configure the SNMP agent, you must enable and authorize the network
management system access to the Services Router, by configuring one or more
communities. Each community has a community name, an authorization, which
determines the kind of access the network management system has to the router,
and, when applicable, a list of valid clients that can access the router.
To configure SNMP communities:
1.
Navigate to the top of the configuration hierarchy in either the J-Web or CLI
configuration editor.
2.
To configure SNMP communities, perform the configuration tasks described in
Table 33 on page 56.
3.
If you are finished configuring the network, commit the configuration.
4.
To check the configuration, see “Verifying the SNMP Configuration” on page 58.
