From the Main Menu, select SNMP in the System Configuration screen and press Return. The SNMP Setup
screen appears.

Follow these steps to configure the first three items in the screen:

1.

Select System Name and enter a descriptive name for the Netopia D-Series’s SNMP agent.

2.

Select System Location and enter the Netopia D-Series’s physical location (room, floor, building, etc.).

3.

Select System Contact and enter the name of the person responsible for maintaining the Netopia
D-Series.

System Name, System Location, and System Contact set the values returned by the Netopia D-Series SNMP
agent for the SysName, SysLocation, and SysContact objects, respectively, in the MIB II system group. Although
optional, the information you enter in these items can help a system administrator manage the network more
efficiently.

The Read-Only Community String and the Read/Write Community String are like passwords that must be used
by an SNMP manager quer ying or configuring the Netopia D-Series. An SNMP manager using the Read-Only
Community String can examine statistics and configuration information from the Netopia D-Series, but cannot
modify the Netopia D-Series’s configuration. An SNMP manager using the Read/Write Community String can
both examine and modify configuration parameters.
