1 Overview of the D-Link Unified Access System keywords or parameters, or if additional parameters are optional, the following message appears in the output: Press Enter to execute the command For more information about the CLI, see the D-Link CLI Command Reference. The D-Link CLI Command Reference lists each command available from the CLI by the command name and provides a brief description of the command. Each command reference also contains the following information: • The command keywords and the required and optional parameters. • The command mode you must be in to access the command. • The default value, if any, of a configurable setting on the device. The show commands in the document also include a description of the information that the command shows. Using SNMP For D-Link Unified Switch software that includes the SNMP module, you can configure SNMP groups and users that can manage traps the SNMP agent generates. The D-Link Unified Switch uses both standard public MIBs for standard functionality as well as a number of additional private MIBs for additional functionality supported by the switch. All private MIBs begin with a "DLINK-" prefix. The main object for interface configuration is in DLINK-SWITCHING-MIB, which is a private MIB. Some interface configurations also involve objects in the public MIB, IF-MIB. SNMP is enabled by default. The System Description Web page, which is the page the displays after a successful login, and the show sysinfo command display the information you need to configure an SNMP manager to access the switch. Any user can connect to the switch using the SNMPv3 protocol, but for authentication and encryption, you need to configure a new user profile. To configure a profile by using the CLI, see the SNMP section in the D-Link CLI Command Reference. To configure an SNMPv3 profile by using the Web interface, use the following steps: 1. Select LAN > Administration > User Accounts from the hierarchical tree on the left side of the Web interface. 2. Using the User pull-down menu, select Create to create a new user. 3. Enter a new user name in the User Name field. 4. Enter a new user password in the Password field and then retype it in the Confirm Password field. To use SNMPv3 Authentication for this user, set a password of eight or more alphanumeric characters. 5. To enable authentication, use the Authentication Protocol pull-down menu to select either MD5 or SHA for the authentication protocol. 6. To enable encryption, use the Encryption Protocol pull-down menu to select DES for the encryption scheme. Then, enter an encryption code of eight or more alphanumeric characters in the Encryption Key field. Understanding the User Interfaces 29

Press Enter to execute the command
For more information about the CLI, see the
D-Link CLI Command Reference.
The
D-Link CLI Command Reference
lists each command available from the CLI by the
command name and provides a brief description of the command. Each command reference
also contains the following information:
The command keywords and the required and optional parameters.
The command mode you must be in to access the command.
The default value, if any, of a configurable setting on the device.
The

Using SNMP
For D-Link Unified Switch software that includes the SNMP module, you can configure
SNMP groups and users that can manage traps the SNMP agent generates.
The D-Link Unified Switch uses both standard public MIBs for standard functionality as well
as a number of additional private MIBs for additional functionality supported by the switch.
All private MIBs begin with a “DLINK-” prefix. The main object for interface configuration is
in DLINK-SWITCHING-MIB, which is a private MIB. Some interface configurations also
involve objects in the public MIB, IF-MIB.
SNMP is enabled by default. The
System Description
Web page, which is the page the
displays after a successful login, and the
show sysinfo
command display the information you
need to configure an SNMP manager to access the switch.
Any user can connect to the switch using the SNMPv3 protocol, but for authentication and
encryption, you need to configure a new user profile. To configure a profile by using the CLI,
see the SNMP section in the
D-Link CLI Command Reference
. To configure an SNMPv3
profile by using the Web interface, use the following steps:
1.
Select
LAN > Administration > User Accounts
from the hierarchical tree on the left side
of the Web interface.
2.
Using the
User
pull-down menu, select
Create
to create a new user.
3.
Enter a new user name in the
User Name
field.
4.
Enter a new user password in the
Password
field and then retype it in the
Confirm
Password
field.
To use SNMPv3 Authentication for this user, set a password of eight or more
alphanumeric characters.
5.
To enable authentication, use the
Authentication Protocol
pull-down menu to select
either MD5 or SHA for the authentication protocol.
6.
To enable encryption, use the
Encryption Protocol
pull-down menu to select
DES
for the
encryption scheme. Then, enter an encryption code of eight or more alphanumeric
characters in the Encryption Key field.
