Access Host

Use the Access Host screen to specify subnet groups from which the switch’s management agent can be accessed. The screen shown below is described in the following table.

Parameter

Description

Access IP Net

An IP address of a subnet authorized for management access.

Access IP Mask

A subnet mask that identifies the host address bits of the subnet.

Add/Remove

Add/remove strings from the active list.

SNMP Configuration

Use the SNMP Configuration screen to display and modify parameters for the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). The switch includes an on-board SNMP agent which monitors the status of its hardware, as well as the traffic passing through its ports. A computer attached to the network, called a Network Management Station (NMS), can be used to access this information. Access rights to the on-board agent are controlled by community strings. To communicate with the switch, the NMS must first submit a valid community string for authentication. The options for configuring community strings and related trap functions are described in the following sections.

SNMP Administration Enable

Access to the management agent from SNMP-based network management software can be enabled/disabled from this screen.

Clearing the checkbox disables the SNMP protocol in the agent so that the switch can only be managed through the Web-based interface or a direct connection to the serial port. Note that even when SNMP Administration is disabled, the agent will continue to issue SNMP trap messages.
