14.5 SNMP

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a protocol used for exchanging
management information between network devices. SNMP is a member of the TCP/IP
protocol suite. Your ZyXEL Device supports SNMP agent functionality, which allows a
manager station to manage and monitor the ZyXEL Device through the network. The ZyXEL
Device supports SNMP version one (SNMPv1), and version two (SNMPv2c). The NWA-3165
alone also supports version 3 (SNMPv3), at the time of writing. The next figure illustrates an
SNMP management operation.

SNMP is available only if TCP/IP is configured.

Server Certificate Select the Server Certificate that the ZyXEL Device will use to identify itself. The

ZyXEL Device is the SSL server and must always authenticate itself to the SSL

client (the computer which requests the HTTPS connection with the ZyXEL

Device).

Authenticate

Client Certificates

Select Authenticate Client Certificates (optional) to require the SSL client to

authenticate itself with the ZyXEL Device by sending the ZyXEL Device a

certificate. To do that the SSL client must have a CA-signed certificate from a CA

that has been imported as a trusted CA on the ZyXEL Device (see the appendix on

importing certificates for details).

Server Port

The HTTPS proxy server listens on port 443 by default. If you change the HTTPS

proxy server port to a different number on the ZyXEL Device, for example 8443,

then you must notify people who need to access the ZyXEL Device web

configurator to use "https://ZyXEL Device IP Address:8443" as the URL.

Server Access

Select a ZyXEL Device interface from Server Access on which incoming HTTPS

access is allowed.
You can allow only secure web configurator access by setting the HTTP Server

Access field to Disable and setting the HTTPS Server Access field to an

interface(s).

Secured Client IP

Address

A secure client is a “trusted” computer that is allowed to communicate with the

ZyXEL Device using this service.
Select All to allow any computer to access the ZyXEL Device using this service.
Choose Selected to just allow the computer with the IP address that you specify to

access the ZyXEL Device using this service.
