AXIS 560/660 User’s Guide Management and Configuration

Using SNMP

You can use SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) for remote monitoring and configuration of the AXIS 560/660. All major functions applicable to print servers are supported.

The AXIS 560/660 supports all relevant parts of MIB-II and the host resource MIB. It also includes a private enterprise MIB called AXIS MIB. To make the full use of the SNMP support you must have an SNMP tool that allows you to install private enterprise MIBs.

The AXIS MIB can be downloaded from:

•the /software/prt_srv/utility/mib/1_14 folder on the AXIS Online CD.

•the Axis WWW home page at http://www.axis.com/.

•the AXIS 560/660 using FTP.

Follow these steps to add the AXIS MIB to your SNMP software:

1.Log in to the AXIS 560/660 using FTP.

2.Download the MIB file /snmp/axis.mib to the SNMP host.

3.Install the AXIS MIB according to instructions in your SNMP software documentation.

Using HP Administration Tools

The AXIS 560/660 is compatible with the HP JetAdmin and the HP Web JetAdmin printer management software. This means that you may use either tool to install and configure your printer devices via your AXIS 560/660 print server. You can also use them to monitor the current status of your AXIS 560/660 and other HP JetAdmin- or HP Web JetAdmin-compatible devices connected to your network.

However, to enable support for the HP administration tools, you must set the HP_JETADMIN parameter of the AXIS 560/660 to YES.

Important:

Even though the AXIS 560/660 is compatible with the HP JetAdmin tool, it behaves slightly different than an HP print server in certain situations. Please refer to the AXIS 560/660 User’s Manual, available on the AXIS Online CD, for further information.
