SNMP Menu

The access point supports SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol). This enables the automatic reporting of access point faults to remote IP addresses, together with remote configuration over the network.

SNMP Community

The SNMP Community is analogous to a basic password protection mechanism. Access to the SNMP device is controlled through community names and without the correct community string, it is not possible to manage the device. This screen enables changes of community string value. The default SNMP mode is Enabled.
