HP (Hewlett-Packard) M208 Switch User Manual


 
146 USING THE M208’S ADDITIONAL OPTIONS: FTP Daemon
SNMP User on page 144 for details.
2 Set the following M208 trap variables using your SNMP manager. The actual syn-
tax of the commands will depend on the particular SNMP manager you are using.
echo “trapCommunity[1]=\”building-A\”” | snmp-set spike
custmmib
where building-A is the string that you want the M208 to send with the trap infor-
mation. This community string has a 14 character maximum.
echo “trapDest[1]=192.75.11.11” | snmp-set spike
custommib
where 192.75.11.11 is the IP address of your SNMP manager.
To disable the entry in the trap table, set the IP address to 0.0.0.0
The M208 will now send trap information with the community string building-A
to the SNMP manager with the IP address 192.75.11.11. For more information on
these trap variables, please see their description in the custom MIB definition file.
The trap table can hold up to ten entries but only the first entry is stored in
EEPROM. If you turn the unit off, you will lose the additional entries.
FTP Daemon
The FTP Daemon provides an additional method to access the M208. Using the FTP
Daemon, users are able to submit print jobs, cancel print jobs, monitor the print queue,
and upload/download M208 configuration files. Users FTP to the M208 as if it were
any other computer on the network.
For the purposes of FTP, a pseudo file system has been defined on the M208 to allow
access to the unit’s functions. Three types of users can access this file system: root,
guest, and anonymous. Root and guest correspond to the entries in the M208’s user
list; anonymous is a special type that does not require a password. For each directory
or file within this file system, there are access restrictions according to the type of user
logged in.
M208 FTP File System
The M208 FTP file system is where you execute all ftp commands on the unit. Please
see the examples on the following pages for a complete description of the commands
and how they are executed.
