Updating SNMP Settings
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) allows SNMP managers to monitor and manage devices on
their IP network. In the case of RUGGEDCOM SAS-GW, SNMP allows base stations and their subscriber units to send
information to RUGGEDCOM SAS-GW about important events related to their status. RUGGEDCOM SAS-GW can
also query devices for specific information and modify their configurations (e.g. enable/disable transmission).
NOTE
For information about traps sent by the base and subscriber units, refer to the base or subscriber unit's
user documentation.
RUGGEDCOM SAS-GW specifically supports SNMPv2c, a variant of SNMPv2 that features community string-based
authentication. Read-only access is granted if the RUGGEDCOM SAS-GW belongs to the SNMP read community.
Full read/write access is granted if RUGGEDCOM SAS-GW belongs to the SNMP write community.
To update the SNMP settings for a specific base station, do the following:
1. Left-click the base station on the map and then click Edit, or open the View All Base Stations list and click
Edit next to the desired base station.
For information about accessing the View All Base Stations list, refer to Section4.4.8, “Viewing Available
Base Stations” .
