6. Locate the ICMP Settings section and adjust the default value as required. Table 29 shows the setting and default value. Table 29 Device Setup > Communication > ICMP Settings Fields and Default Values Setting Default Description Attempt to ping Yes devices that were unreachable via SNMP When Yes is selected, AMP attempts to ping the AP device. Select No if performance is affected in negative fashion by this function. If a large number of APs are unreachable by ICMP, likely to occur where there is in excess of 100 APs, the timeouts start to impede network performance. NOTE: If ICMP is disabled on the network, select No to avoid the performance penalty caused by numerous ping requests. 7. Locate the Symbol 4131 and Cisco Aironet IOS SNMP Initialization area. Select one of the options listed. Table 30 describes the settings and default values: Table 30 Device Setup > Communication > Symbol 4131 and Cisco Aironet IOS SNMP Initialization Fields and Default Values Setting Default Description Do Not Modify Yes SNMP Settings Enable read-write No SNMP When selected, specifies that AMP not modify any SNMP settings.
