4. Allow/Prohibit SNMP SET Commands
set snmp rw-status up
set snmp rw-status down
5. Set the read-write community name for permitted SETs
set snm
p rw-community <name>
6. Restrict the source of SNMP requests to only the designated hosts or subnets
set snmp source-status up
set snmp source-status down
When "source-status" is enabled (up), the AP accepts SNMP only from designated hosts or subnets.
When "source-status" is disabled (down), the AP accepts all SNMP requests it receives.
7. Specify hosts or subnets that can make SNMP requests to the AP
Note tha
t this setting is valid only when the "source-status" is enabled (up).
As with community names, this provides a level of security on SNMP settings. The SNMP agent will only
accept requests from the hostname or subnet specified here.
Specify the DNS hostname or subnet of the machines that can execute GET and SET requests to the
managed devices as follows:
set snmp source <hostname_or_subnet>
If you need more information on specifying DNS hostnames or address ranges for subnets, see the
description of this SNMP setting for the Web UI in “Configuring SNMP Settings”.
Time Protocol
The Network Time Protocol (NTP) is an Internet standard protocol that synchronizes computer clock
times on your network. NTP servers transmit Coordinated Universal Time (UTC, also known as
Greenwich Mean Time) to their client systems. NTP sends periodic time requests to servers, using the
returned time stamp to adjust its clock. The timestamp will be used to indicate the date and time of each
event in log messages. See http://www.ntp.org fo
r more general information on NTP.
To enable the Network Time Protocol (NTP) server on the access point do the following:
1. Enable the NTP Server
A
T-TQ2403# set ntp status up
2. Provide the Host Name or Address of an NTP Server
set nt
p server
NTP_Server
Where NTP_Server is the host name or IP address of the NTP server you want to use. (We recommend
using the host name rather than the IP address, since IP addresses these change more frequently.)
AT-TQ2403# set ntp server ntp.alliedtelesis.com
3. Synchronize Automatically
If ena
bled, the device will synchronize time with the NTP server automatically.
