SNMP Diagnostics
The Q data radio range can provide SNMP diagnostic data via an internal SNMP agent. The radio supports SNMP v1 & v2c along with
notifications which includes traps and informs. SNMP facilities include RFC1213, Ethernet diagnostics and radio diagnostics
The features and benefits of SNMP diagnostics include:
•SNMP messages/notifications that can be sent to Clear SCADA or SNMP management software.
•SNMP notifications that provide real time alarm detection reporting.
•Helping to eliminate the need for radio polling.
•Radios that can send diagnostic information via SNMP periodically (diagnostics heartbeat).
Schneider Electric supply .MIB files can be imported into most major SNMP Management consoles. These .MIB files define
the contents of the SNMP parameters including a description for each parameter. The parameters are sorted into six distinct
groups: General, Radio, Security, LAN, Error and Notification.
SNMP Notifications
The Q data radios have the capability to send SNMP notifications. An SNMP notification is a message to inform a user that
a radio state has changed. These states include: input voltage, temperature, Tx power, etc. There are two types of SNMP
notifications available: traps and informs.
•A trap is a single UDP message that is sent from the Q data radios to a user defined SNMP manger.
•An inform is still a UDP message, however, an inform requests a response to the UDP message sent. This allows retries
and time outs to be used within the radio.
