Configuring the SNMP An SNMP manager application gains access to the AP SNMP agent if the Agent management application has the AP’s IP address. To ensure security when SNMP is

used, the SNMP agent can be configured as read-only, read-write, or disabled. The AP sends specific traps for some conditions.

See the 3Com MIB on the Wireless LAN Installation and Utilities disk for specific entries.

The AP supports SNMP V1, MIB-II and the 3Com.MIB. To configure the SNMP agent, follow the procedure below.

1Select Configuration-->SNMP. The SNMP Setup page displays.

2Select a mode for SNMP Agent Mode.

4Enter a user-defined password of up to 13 characters for Read/Write Community.

5Enter the IP address of the trap manager for Trap IP Address.
