SNMP
This section provides installation and setup information for the ViewCast SNMP agent service. This
release supports SNMP v1 and SNMP v2c. SNMP v3 will be supported in future releases.
The native Windows SNMP service implements standard MIB functions such as those defined in
RFC1213-MIB, HOST-RESOURCES-MIB including IP address table, interface table (MAC addresses) and
traps of cold start, interface link up, link down, etc.
The SuperMicro SNMP agent service is a third-party SNMP agent provided by Super Micro Computer to
monitor the health of system devices in the system, such as fan speed, CPU temperature, system
temperature, etc.
The ViewCast SNMP agent service will run as the master SNMP agent in the system. It will not only
implement ViewCast private MIBs as listed below, but also provide proxy functions to relay SNMP
requests/responses associated with those objects managed by other SNMP sub-agents.
The private MIBs include VIEWCAST-AVENCODER-MIB and VIEWCAST-AVENCODER-TRAP-
MIB, etc.
External SNMP Manager
With ViewCast SNMP agent enabled in each Niagara system, you can start a single SNMP manager at a
central location to manage one or multiple systems at the same time.
The external SNMP manager could be a GUI-based commercial or free application tool or an SNMP
scripting tool. Which SNMP manager to use is your choice.
