Using Simple

Network

Management

Protocol (SNMP)

The access point can be managed using Simple Network Management
Protocol (SNMP); that is, you access the access point from an SNMP
management station. Contact your Allied Telesyn representative if you
need to obtain a copy of the MIB.

Before you can use an SNMP management station, you must define the
access point’s SNMP community strings.

To configure the SNMP community strings

1. From the menu, click Network Management. The Network

Management screen appears.

2. Configure the SNMP community parameters. For help, see the next

table.

3. Click Submit Changes to save your changes. To activate your

changes, from the menu bar click Save/Discard Changes, and then
click Save Changes and Reboot. For help, see “Saving Configuration
Changes” on page 45.
