Chapter 5: Operation of Web-based Management
Figure 5-16. SNMP Configuration.
Parameters description:
SNMP enable: The term SNMP enable here is used for the activation or deactivation of SNMP. The default is “Disable.”
Get/Set/Trap Community: Community name is used as password for authenticating if the requesting network management unit
belongs to the same community group. If they both don’t have the same community name, they don’t belong to the same group.
So, the requesting network management unit cannot access the device with a different community name via SNMP protocol;
if they both have the same community name, they can talk each other.
Community name is user-definable with a maximum length of 15 characters and is case-sensitive, with no blanks in the
community name string. Any printable character is allowed.
The community name for each function works independently. For example, the community name for Read-only works for the
Read function and can’t be applied to other function, such as Write and Trap.
Default SNMP function: Disable
Default community name for Get: Public
Default community name for Set: Private
Default community name for Trap: Public
System Event: The System Event trap enable here is used for the “cold boot” or ”warm boot” of System Event. The default is
“Disable.”
TP and Fiber Port Event: The TP and Fiber Port Event trap enabled here is used for the “link up” or “link down” of a System Event.
The default is “Disable.”
Other Event: Authentication fails.
