SNMP

This section explains how to use the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to manage LAN Switch Processors. It assumes that you are using an SNMP-based network management software application such as NBase-Xyplex MegaVision ™ to manage the switches. Hereafter, this section refers to your network management application as a Network Operations Center (NOC). Additionally, this section describes the RMON (Remote Monitoring) application and the type of network management applications that enable you to use RMON.

NBase-Xyplex SNMP Support

SNMP is an Internet standard protocol, defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) Request for Comment (RFC) 1157, which specifies how network management information is carried through a network. NBase-Xyplex switches support SNMP by implementing an SNMP agent. The agent stores Management Information Base (MIB) data and makes it available when requested through SNMP Set, Get, and Get_Next requests.

In addition, NBase-Xyplex switches generate SNMP Trap messages. Traps are notices that the switch sends to an SNMP manager indicating that a specific event has occurred, or that the condition of a unit has changed significantly.

SNMP basic configuration

To enable your NOC to communicate with a NBase-Xyplex switch, you must assign it an IP address. Use the following command to do this:

set-ip-cfg ip-address ip-mask ip-broadcast

The address you assign must be valid for the network connected to the switch. In a routed network, depending on the switch location, you also need to assign a subnet mask and gateway, as follows:

set-gatew ip-gateway-address

To make sure that your NOC can exchange information with the switch, Ping the switch from the NOC.
