OKI OkiLAN 6010e User’s Guide
The OkiLAN 6010e sends printer traps when there is a
change in the status of the printer. If the printer goes
off-line, runs out of paper or is detached, the adminis-
trator will be notified via the OkiLAN 6010e traps over
both UDP and IPX. Additionally, the OkiLAN 6010e
can send traps on toner low, paper jam, and printer
cover open. The traps may be configured for specific
destination addresses and can be configured for a
particular printer port and/or printer trap.
In order to receive OkiNet Alert traps, the OkiLAN
6010e must have bidirectional status enabled (it is
disabled by default). Extended Status can be enabled
through the OkiLAN 6010e Configuration utility
(telnet) from the Configure Port option. You can also
enable OkiNet Alert through OkiNet for TCP/IP or IPX
from the Output Port file tab.
Security
SNMP implements a simple security system known as
community names. Each SNMP message has a commu-
nity name associated with the command in the message.
SNMP allows for a Set community name, Get commu-
nity name and a Trap community name. When the
SNMP Agent receives a command, it checks the com-
munity name of the message with the community name
of the device. If the community names do not match,
the Agent discards the message and sends an authenti-
cation failure trap.
