About SNMP
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a protocol
governing network management and the monitoring of network
devices and their functions. The Prestige supports the utilization of
SNMP to regulate the communication that occurs between the
manager station and the agent stations in a network. Basically, the
Prestige, when connected to the LAN, acts as an agent station. In
this way, the manager station on your LAN can monitor the
Prestige as it would another station on the network. Keep in mind
that SNMP is only available if TCP/IP is configured on your
Prestige.

The following steps describe a simple setup procedure for
configuring the SNMP management.
