Management stations are computers on the network that will be used to manage the switch. You can
limit the number of possible management stations by entering up to three IP addresses in the
Management Station IP Settings field. If the three IP Address fields contain all zeros (“0”), then any
station with any IP address can access the switch to manage and configure it. If there is one or more IP
addresses entered in the IP Address field, then only stations with the IP addresses entered will be
allowed to access the switch to manage or configure it.
Setting Up Trap Receivers
This allows the switch to send traps (messages about errors, etc.) to management stations on the
network. Highlight Setup Trap Receivers and press Enter. The trap recipients can be setup from the
following screen:
Figure 6-16. Setup Trap Recipients menu
The IP Address field is the IP address of a management station (a computer) that is configured to
receive the SNMP traps from the switch.
The SNMP Community String is similar to a password in that stations that do not know the correct
string cannot receive or request SNMP information from the switch.
The Status field can be toggled between Enabled and Disabled to enable or disable the receipt of SNMP
traps by the listed management stations.
