SNMP
The SNMP screen allows the user to configure the N-111’s SNMP function. This
function allows the N-111 to automatically share information regarding the state of alarm
inputs and aux contacts with the user’s SNMP management software over the network.
The entire SNMP function can be enabled or disabled by selecting either of the Enable
or Disable radio buttons. This causes the entire SNMP function to be enabled or
disabled.
The names of the Get and Set communities can be changed from their default settings
to any text string of up to 39 characters. The Get community is used when retrieving the
current values from the N-111. The Set community is used when changing values on
the N-111, for example turning an aux contact on or off. The names of the communities
must mach the community names set in the user’s management software. This enables
a degree of security for controlling contacts or changing warning levels. The Set
function can also be independently disabled, so that it will only be possible to read data
from the N-111.
Up to four SNMP servers can be programmed into the N-111. When the alarm
input or aux contact output changes state, the N-111 will send SNMP trap messages to
every configured SNMP server on the list. This function can be independently enabled
or disabled for the alarm input and aux contact output.
