Maintenance Manual

■ The 'system uptime' that appears in the trap is the time since SNMP was initialized on the MCU (and therefore
will differ from the Uptime reported by the MCU on the Status > General page).
■ The SNMP MIBs are read-only.

Enable
authentication
failure trap
Select this check box
to enable
authentication failure
traps.
You cannot select this check box unless you have selected to Enable
traps above. Authentication failure traps are generated and sent to the
trap receivers when someone tries to read or write a MIB value with an
incorrect community string.
Trap receiver
addresses 1
to 4
Enter the IP address or
hostname for up to four
devices that will
receive both the
general and the
authentication failure
traps.
The traps that are sent by the MCU for IPv4 are SNMP v1 traps. For IPv6
the MCU sends SNMP v2 traps. You can configure trap receivers or you
can view the MIB using a MIB browser. You can set the UDP port number
for the trap in the format <IP address>: <port number>. By default the
UDP port number is 162. Note that square brackets are mandatory for
IPv6 addresses.
Access Control
Field Field Description Usage Tips
RO
community
Community string/password that gives
read-only access to all trap information.
Note that SNMP community strings are not secure. They
are sent in plain text across the network.
