Monitoring with AIX NetView/6000
The IBM AIX NetView/6000 program can manage any IP-addressable
device with an SNMP agent.
NetView/6000 can be used to set a network topology, monitor a network,
diagnose problems, and measure network performance.
Through its MIB Browser, information about the resources affecting an
event (such as an alarm) can be obtained.
Setting the SNMP Community Name
The default SNMP read-only community name is “public”, and cannot be
changed.
Change the SNMP R/W community name with the command:
set user passwd snmp
com_name
save
where
com_name
is the new SNMP R/W community name.
The default is no R/W community name.
NOTE: Changing SNMP community names or access rights may hinder
or disable applications that are monitoring your printers, such as
the IBM Network Printer Manager and the IBM TCP/IP Network
Port Monitor.
