Setting the SNMP Configuration
Getting Started with the Mobile Computer
The access point can use Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to interact with wireless
devices. SNMP is an application layer protocol that facilitates the exchange of management
information. SNMP enabled devices listen on port 162 (by default) for SNMP packets from their
management server. SNMP uses read-only and read-write community strings as an authentication
mechanism to monitor and configure supported devices. The read-only community string is used to
gather statistical data and configuration parameters from a supported wireless device. The
read-write community string is used by a management server to set device parameters. SNMP is
generally used to monitor a system’s performance and other parameters.
To define SNMP management values:
1. Select Configuration > Management.
2. Select SNMP from the list of Management Policy options in the upper, left-hand, side of the UI.
