SNMP You can specify or change the SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) parameters provided. See Table 4.7. CAUTION If you use HP Web Jetadmin to manage your devices, you should use HP Web Jetadmin to seamlessly configure SNMP v3 and other security settings on the print server. Using the embedded Web server to create the SNMP v3 account will erase any existing SNMP v3 accounts. In addition, the SNMP v3 account information will need to be implemented on the SNMP management application. For more information, see SNMP v3. Table 4.7 SNMP Settings (1 of 2) Item Enable SNMPv1/v2 read-write access Enable SNMPv1/v2 read-only access Description This option enables the SNMP v1/v2c agents on the print server. Custom community names can be configured to control management access to the print server. An SNMP Set Community Name is a password to be able to configure (or "write") SNMP information on the HP Jetdirect print server. An SNMP Get Community Name is a password to retrieve (or "read") SNMP information on the HP Jetdirect print server. An incoming SNMP SetRequest or GetRequest command must contain the appropriate Set or Get community name before the print server will respond. A community name must be ASCII characters and can be up to 255 characters long. The default Get community name is "public", which can be disabled to restrict access. If "public" is disabled, some port monitors or discovery utilities may not operate properly. This option enables the SNMP v1/v2c agents on the print server, but limits access to read-only. Write-access is disabled. The default Get community name "public" is automatically enabled. ENWW Using the Embedded Web Server 126
