Managing AppleTalk Settings

AppleTalk is a suite of protocols developed to implement file sharing, mail service, and printing between Apple computers. Use the serversetup tool to enable or disable AppleTalk.

To enable AppleTalk on a particular port:

$ serversetup -EnableAT [(devicename"portname")]

If you don’t provide an interface, en0 is assumed.

To disable AppleTalk on a particular port:

$ serversetup -DisableAT [(devicename"portname")]

If you don’t provide an interface, en0 is assumed.

To enable AppleTalk on en0:

$ serversetup -EnableDefaultAT

To disable AppleTalk on en0:

$ serversetup -DisableDefaultAT

To make AppleTalk active or inactive for a configuration:

$ sudo networksetup -setappletalk "configuration" (onoff)

To check AppleTalk state on en0:

$ serversetup -getDefaultATActive

To see if AppleTalk is active for a configuration:

$ sudo networksetup -getappletalk

Managing SNMP Settings

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a set of standard protocols used to manage and monitor multiplatform computer network devices. SNMP uses a manager/ agent design.

SNMP relies on a manager/agent design where the agent provides the interface between the manager and the physical device being managed. SNMP uses five basic messages (GET, GET-NEXT, GET-RESPONSE, SET, and TRAP) to communicate between the manager and the agent.
