Configuring the NMS

IMPORTANT:

The configuration on the NMS must be consistent with that on the agent. Otherwise, you cannot perform
corresponding operations.

To configure the NMS:

1.

Configure the SNMP version for the NMS as v1 or v2c.

2.

Create a read-only community and name it public.

3.

Create a read and write community and name it private.

For more information about configuring the NMS, see the NMS manual.

Verifying the configuration

Verify that the NMS can access and set some MIB variables on the AC.
Shut down and bring up an idle interface on the AC, and verify that the NMS can receive the link traps
from the AC.

SNMPv3 configuration example

Network requirements

As shown in

Figure 110

, the NMS (1.1.1.2/24) uses SNMPv3 to monitor and manage the interface status

of the AP (the agent) at 1.1.1.1/24, and the AP automatically sends traps to report events to the NMS.
The NMS and the agent perform authentication when they set up an SNMP session. The authentication

algorithm is MD5 and the authentication key is authkey. The NMS and the AP also encrypt the SNMP

packets between them by using the DES56 algorithm and the privacy key prikey.
