Configuring the NMS

IMPORTANT:

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

To configure the NMS:

1.

Specify the SNMPv1 or SNMPv2c version.

2.

Create a read-only community named public.

3.

Create a read/write community named private.

For more information about configuration procedure on the NMS, see the NMS user 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 107

, the NMS (1.1.1.2/24) uses SNMPv3 to manage the AC (1.1.1.1/24), and the AC

automatically sends traps to report events to the NMS.
The NMS and the AC perform authentication when they set up an SNMP session. The authentication

algorithm is MD5 and the authentication key is authkey. The NMS and the agent also encrypt the SNMP
packets between them by using the DES56 algorithm and the privacy key prikey.
