Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
300861-C Rev. 00 1-3
Using SNMP set to Send Commands to the RAC
The private enterprise MIB objects allow you to change the configuration of the
RAC.
Using the SNMP set command, you can broadcast a message, reset a port or
subsystem, and reboot the RAC.
• To broadcast a message, use SNMP set to write the message to the MIB object
anxcBcastMsg and then set the broadcast type to the MIB object anxcBcast.
• To reset a RAC subsystem, use SNMP set to write the desired type (all,
macros, motd, nameserver, security) to the MIB object anxcReset.
• To reset the RAC, use SNMP set to write the desired value to the MIB object
anxcReset.
• To reset a single internal modem, use SNMP set to write a value to
mdmCtlReset.
• To reboot the RAC, set the desired image name using the MIB object
anxcBootImage and set any boot warning message using the MIB object
anxcBootMsg. For a delayed boot, set the boot time using the MIB object
anxcBootTime. Then set the boot type using the MIB object anxcBoot.
Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP)
There are two IGMP limitation configuration parameters available for the
administrator. The use of the parameters allow an increase or a limit on the
number of pending IGMP events and multicast packets for total number of IGMP
events and packets processed by the system. Refer to the Nortel Networks 5399
and 8000 Access Switch Software Reference.
Note: For some objects, the configuration changes do not take effect until the
RAC is rebooted.
Note: To change the RAC’s configuration using set, SNMP must be enabled
at boot time. Make sure the argument snmp is not disabled in the
disabled_modules parameter. For more details, see disabled_modules in the
Nortel Networks 5399 and 8000 Access Switch Software Reference).
You cannot configure filters through SNMP.
