Assigning SNMP Parameters

Use the SNMP Configuration screen to display and modify parameters for the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). The Agent Module monitors the hardware status of the hub (or connected stack), as well as the traffic passing through the ports. A Network Management Station (NMS) can access this information using other third-party network management software. Access rights to the agent are controlled by community strings. To communicate with the agent, the NMS must first submit a valid community string for authentication. The options for configuring community strings and related trap functions are described in Figure 5, Figure 6 and Figure 7, and in Table 4, Table 5 and Table 6:
