Using the SNMP
This unit supports SNMP (Simple Network 
Management Protocol). You can read MIB-2 objects 
and write some MIB-2 objects using software such as 
SNMP manager software. This unit also supports the 
coldStart trap which occurs when the power is turned on 
or the unit restarts, and the Authentication failure trap 
which informs of an illegal access using SNMP.
Using CGI commands, you can set community name 
and access limitation, reading/writing right, host to send 
traps, and some MIB-2 objects. To allow these settings, 
you need Level 4 authentication (the right to open the 
setting pages).
1. Inquiry Commands
You can check the SNMP Agent settings using the 
following CGI commands.
GET, POST
“http://ip_adr/snmpdconf/inquiry.cgi?inqjs=snmp 
(JavaScript parameter format)
http://ip_adr/snmpdconf/inquiry.cgi?inq=snmp 
(standard format)
With the above inquiry, you can obtain the following 
setting information. The following explains the setting 
information using the inqjs=snmp (JavaScript 
parameter) format.
var sysDescr=“\“SONY Network Camera SNC-
CS3\””
...1
var sysObjectID=“1.3.6.1.4.1.122.8501”
...2
var sysLocation=“\“\””
...3
var sysContact=“\“\””
...4
var sysName=“\“\””
...5
var snmpEnableAuthenTraps=“1”
...6
var community=“public,0.0.0.0,read,1”
...7
var community=“private,192.168.0.101,write,2”

1
describes the instance of “mib-2.system. 
sysDescr.0”. You cannot change this parameter.
2
describes the instance of “mib-2.system. 
sysObjectID.0”. You cannot change this parameter.
3
describes the instance of “mib-2.system. 
sysLocation.0”. This field is used to describe the 
information on the location of this camera. Nothing 
is set at the factory.
4
describes the instance of “mib-2.system. 
sysContact.0”. This field is used to describe the 
information on the administrator of this camera. 
Nothing is set at the factory.
5
describes the instance of “mib-2.system. 
sysName.0”. This field is used to describe the 
administration node of this camera. Nothing is set 
at the factory.
6
describes the instance of “mib-2.snmpEnable 
AuthenTraps.0”. This example shows when “1” 
(enable) is set. With this setting, a trap occurs when 
there is an Authentication failure. When “2” 
(disable) is set, no Authentication failure trap 
occurs.
7
describes the community name and the reading/
writing attributes. This example shows the 
identification number “ID=1”, the community 
name public, and enables read from any IP address 
(0.0.0.0).
8
describes the community name and the reading/
writing attributes, similarly to 7. This example 
shows the identification number ID=2, the 
community name “private”, and enables “read/
write” by the SNMP request packet from the host 
“192.168.0.101”.
9
describes the host name to send a trap. This 
example shows the identification number “ID=1”, 
the community name “public”, and enables sending 
of traps to the host having the IP address 
“192.168.0.101”.
