Starting an SNMP Management Session
The final method for managing an AT-8300 Stack from a network
management station is by using an SNMP management program, such
as HP Openview. This method requires that the switch have an IP
address and subnet mask. An SNMP management program will allow
you to examine the Management Information Base (MIB) objects on the
switch. This method does not employ the AT-S25 management
interface. For instructions on using your SNMP program, refer to the
documentation that came with the program.
To manage a stack using an SNMP management program, you need to
load the stack’s MIB file, available from the Allied Telesyn web site, onto
the management station. This requires that you use a MIB compiler. To
load the MIB file onto a management station, follow the instructions
included with your MIB compiler.
