Configuration over SNMP
The LANTIME timeserver can be configured via several user interfaces. Besides
the possibility to setup its parameters with the web interface (HTTP and/or HTTPS)
and the direct shell access via Telnet or SSH, a SNMP based configuration interface
is available.
In order to use the SNMP configuration features of the timeserver, you need to fulfil
the following requirements (the system has to be reachable over the network, of
course):
a) SNMP has to be activated in the timeservers setup by setting up a RWCOM-
MUNITY
b) In the SNMP configuration the read-write-access needs to be activated
c) The timeserver-specific MIB files must be present on the clients, they have to be
included in the SNMP setup of the client software
a) and b) can be achieved by using the web interface or the shell access, please see the
appropriate chapters in this manual. The mentioned MIB files can be found directly
on the timeserver located at /usr/local/share/snmp/mibs. All files with names starting
with “MBG-SNMP-“ have to be copied onto the SNMP clients by using the
timeservers ftp access (for example). You may also use the web interface, on the page
“Local“ you will find a button “Download MIB files“. You will get a tar-archive if
you are using the download button, which you have to unpack first. Afterwards, copy
all MIB files to the MIB directory on your client(s) and configure your SNMP client
software to use them.
