System IP/SNMP Configuration

The Window contains basic IP/SNMP configuration parameters:

 

The IP Configuration group of parameters applies to the InBand Ethernet connection of the managed device:

   IP Address, NetMask, Broadcast IP Address, Gateway IP Address.

 

The OutOfBand group of parameters applies to the SLIP (Out of Band) connection of the managed device:

 IP Address, NetMask, Broadcast IP Address, Baud Rate (9600/19200/38400),SLIP Mode  (Active/Inactive).

 

The Snmp Communities group applies to the SNMP security mechanism for the managed device:

Read Community name

Write Community Name (it is invisible but you may enter a new one)

The default Community names are public and private for read and write respectively.

 

The Trap Table enables adding/editing/deleting new manager hosts for the managed device.

Once the manager's host IP Address is in the table the managed device may send standard SNMP Traps to it.

Clicking on the Add Host or Edit Host buttons will open the Add/Edit Host window.

Clicking on the Remove Host button will remove the manager from the table.

 

Clicking on the OK button will send the changes (if any) to the managed device, but they will be in effect only after a reset.  Reset the device immediately to avoid confusion.
