SNMP Management Session

Another way to remotely manage the switch is with an SNMP
management program. AT-S62 software supports SNMPv1, SNMPv2c,
and SNMPv3. You need to be familiar with Management Information Base
(MIB) objects to configure a switch using SNMP management.

The AT-S62 software supports the following MIBs:

ˆ

SNMP MIB-II (RFC 1213)

ˆ

Bridge MIB (RFC 1493)

ˆ

SNMPv3 (RFC 2571-6)

ˆ

User-based Security Model (USM) for SNMPv3 (RFC 2574)

ˆ

Interface Group MIB (RFC 2863)

ˆ

Ethernet MIB (RFC 1643)

ˆ

Remote Network MIB (RFC 1757)

ˆ

Allied Telesyn managed switch MIB

You must download the Allied Telesyn managed switch MIB files
(atiChassisSwitch.mib and atiStackinginfo.mib) from the Allied Telesyn
web site and compile the files with your SNMP program. For instructions
on how to compile the MIB file with your SNMP program, refer to your
SNMP management documentation.

For information about how to configure SNMP communities using a local
or Telnet management session, see Chapter 5, “SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c
Configuration” on page 89
and Chapter 21, “SNMPv3” on page 375.

Note

SNMP management can use the enhanced stacking feature through
the private MIB (atiStackinginfo.mib). See Chapter 4, “Enhanced
Stacking” on page 79.
