The SNMP consists of the following three key components:
1. Manager:
Network-Management Station (NMS), a server which executes applications
that monitor and control managed devices.
2. Agent:
A network-management software module on a managed device which
transfers the status of managed devices to the NMS.
3. Managed device:
A network node on a managed network. For example: routers,
switches, bridges, hubs, computer hosts, printers, IP telephones, network cameras,
web server, and database.
Before configuring SNMP setting on this page, please enable your NMS first.
Enable SNMPv1, SNMPv2c: Select this option and enter the names of Read/Write
community and Read Only community according to your NMS setting.
Enable SNMPv3: This option contains cryptographic security, a higher security level
which allows you to set the Authentication password and the Encryption password.
• Security name:
According to your NMS setting, choose Read/Write or Read Only
and enter the community name.
• Authentication type:
Select MD5 or SHA as the authentication method.
• Authentication password:
Enter the password for authentication (at least 8
characters).
• Encryption password:
Enter a password for encryption (at least 8 characters).
