SNMP
This command allows you to define the SNMP Communities, the SNMP System, and
any specific SNMP Trap Managers. With SNMP enabled and the settings on this
page defined, your Access/One Network will support most common SNMP
management consoles.
The system also supports Syslog (System Logging) via an SNMP manager (in parallel
with basic Syslog services) where Syslog text information is encoded in an SNMP
trap message and presented to the operator.
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol is a standard protocol that regulates
network management over the Internet. SNMP uses TCP/IP to communicate with a
management platform, and offers a standard set of commands that make multi-
vendor operability possible. SNMP uses a standard set of definitions, known as a
MIB (Management Information Base), which can be supplemented with Enterprise-
specific extensions. Strix provides its own proprietary MIBs. For more information
about Strix MIBs, contact Strix technical support.
