About SNMP
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a protocol governing network
management and the monitoring of network devices and their functions. Your Prestige supports
the utilization of SNMP to regulate the communication that occurs between the manager station
and the agent stations in a network. Basically, your Prestige, when connected to the LAN, acts as
an agent station. In this way, the manager station on your LAN can monitor your Prestige as it
would another station on the network. Keep in mind that SNMP is only available if TCP/IP is
configured on your Prestige.

The following steps describe a simple setup procedure for configuring the SNMP management:
Step 1. From the Main Menu, select option [22. SNMP Configuration]
