Management > SNMP

The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) allows a network administrator to monitor a network by retrieving settings on remote network devices. To do this, the administrator typically runs an SNMP management station program such as MIB browser on a local host to obtain information from the SNMP agent, in this case the NB9/NB9W (if SNMP enabled). An SNMP ‘community’ performs the function of authenticating SNMP traffic. A ‘community name’ acts as a password that is typically shared among SNMP agents and managers.

To enable SNMP, change the setting for “SNMP Agent” to “Enable”.
