Problem

 

Solution

 

 

 

 

 

Unable to perform a GET

1.

Verify the read (GET) community name.

 

 

2.

Use the Control Console or Web interface to ensure

 

 

 

that the NMS has access. See SNMP on page 29.

 

 

 

 

 

Unable to perform a SET

1.

Verify the read/write (SET) community name.

 

 

2.

Use the Control Console or Web interface to ensure

 

 

 

that the NMS has write (SET) access. See SNMP

 

 

 

on page 29.

 

 

 

 

Unable to receive traps at

Query the PowerNet MIB mconfigTrapReceiverTable

 

the NMS

OIDs to verify that the NMS IP address is listed

 

 

correctly, and that the community name defined for the

 

 

NMS matches the community name in the table. If

 

 

necessary, use SETs to the OIDs, or use the Control

 

 

Console or Web interface to correct the trap receiver

 

 

definition problem. See SNMP on page 29.
