SNMP Configuration
Use the SNMP Configuration screen to display and modify parameters
for the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). The switch
includes an on-board SNMP agent which monitors the status of its
hardware, as well as the traffic passing through its ports. A computer
attached to the network, called a Network Management Station (NMS),
can be used to access this information. Access rights to the on-board
agent are controlled by community strings. To communicate with the
switch, the NMS must first submit a valid community string for
authentication. The options for configuring community strings and
related trap functions are described in the sections.
