5.8.4 SNMP Configuration
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a popular protocol for network management. It is widely
used in local area networks (LAN) for collecting information, and managing and monitoring, network devices,
such as servers, printers, hubs, switches, and routers from a management host.
Managed devices that support SNMP including software are referred to as an SNMP agent, which usually
interacts with third-party SNMP management software to enable the sharing of network status information
between monitored devices and applications and the SNMP management system.
A defined collection of variables (managed objects) are maintained by the SNMP agent and used to manage
the device. These objects are defined in a Management Information Base (MIB), which provides a standard
presentation of the information controlled by the on-board SNMP agent. SNMP defines both the format of the
MIB specifications and the protocol used to access this information over the network.
Choose Administration > SNMP configuration and the following page appears. You may enable SNMP
Configuration and Trap Configuration settings.
