SNMP Configuration Menu
Use the SNMP Configuration Menu to display and modify parameters for
the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). The Agent Module
monitors the hardware status of the hub (or connected stack), as well as
the traffic passing through the ports. A Network Management Station
(NMS) can access this information using third-party network management
software. Access rights to the management agent are controlled by
community strings. To communicate with the management agent, the
NMS must first submit a valid community string for authentication. The
options for configuring community strings and related trap functions are
described in Figure 3-6, Figure 3-7, and Figure 3-8 and their
accompanying tables
.
