SNMP (menu)
A description of OID organization is provided in the MIB portion of this manual (Appendix C).
SNMP MENU
SNMP VERSION
{V1 & V2, V3}
This selection controls the SNMP Version that will be used in
messaging between the equipment and it’s host.
When V1 & V2 is used, RD COMMUNITY and RDWR
COMMUNITY are used to determine the authorization of an
incoming message.
When V3 is used, three contexts are supported:
public, mib2, and
dev. Context, Authentication and Privacy are a portion of each
SNMPV3 message.
The
public context will only allow the user to see the sysoid of the
unit. This is the most restricted access possible and only allows
the unit to be identified by a host SNMP Station.
The
mib2 context allows a user with appropriate authentication to
access the mib2 OIDs and the SNMP OIDs. These are of interest
primarily to network operators not controlling the satellite link.
The
dev context allows a user with appropriate authentication to
access the device control portion of the MIB. These OIDs are
used to control the devices satellite link and operation.
TRAP VERSION
{V1, V2}
This controls the type of message format used when a message
trap is generated by the equipment and bound for a SNMP Host.
Messages will only be sent if the unit has been authorized to do
so.
AUTHORIZATION
{TRAPS OFF, TRAPS
ON}
This controls the type of message format used when a message
trap is generated by the equipment and bound for a SNMP host.
Messages will only be sent if the unit has been authorized to do
so.
RD COMMUNITY

This menu is only displayed when SNMP VERSION is set to V1 &
V2. This is the community that a host must be acting within when
