SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol)
SNMP is a set of protocols designed to help manage complex networks. SNMP-compliant
devices store data about themselves in MIBs and return this data to the SNMP requesters. The
SNMP Configuration pages provide control over SNMP security, including methods to
configure:
■ Administrative and Key User accounts with privacy and authentication protocols and keys
associated with each account.
■ SNMP user account read or read/write access.
■ An access control list that limits SNMP access to the printer to specific hosts.
For information on configuring SNMP, see Configuring SNMP on page 4-17.
