4: Configuration

The MSS will respond to queries for unknown MIBs with a not in MIB error to the requesting host.

SNMP Trap Support

The MSS will generate limited forms of three of the SNMP traps. Traps are sent to a host when certain events occur on the MSS.

The MSS will generate a Coldstart trap when it first boots, and will send a Linkup trap when the startupfile (if any) has been read from a host and normal operation commences. If a startupfile has been configured but the download fails, the MSS will send an Authentication trap. In all three cases, the trap will be directed to the IP address of the loadhost for the MSS. If a loadhost has not been specified, the traps will not be sent.

Configuring SNMP

The MSS has a single community (“public”) with read-only access. You can optionally add a single community with read-write access using the Change Server SNMPSetComm command with the MSS-VIA and MSS4 or the Change SNMPSetComm command with the MSS100. See the MSS Reference Manual for more details.

Once you enable an SNMP write community, you can configure the following things on the MSS. Items marked with an asterisk (*) are saved to NVR.

IPX (NetWare) Configuration

Note: The following section on Netware applies to the MSS100 only.

Four NetWare settings can be configured: routing and encapsulation parameters, the internal network number to use for internal routing, and the NetWare loadhost to use at boot time.

Routing and Encapsulation

The first layer of an IPX Ethernet packet is the frame type. It includes routing information. By default, the MSS is configured to handle packets of all four NetWare frame types.

If more than one frame type is in use on the LAN, the MSS will advertise itself as a router to the network using its internal network number. This behavior allows nodes and fileservers to access the MSS regardless of the frame type being used.
