Configuring SNMP

You can view an SG appliance using a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) management station. The appliance supports MIB-2 (RFC 1213), Proxy MIB, and the RFC2594 MIB, and can be downloaded at the following URL: https:// download.bluecoat.com/release/SGOS5/index.html (The SNMP link is in the lower right-hand corner.).

Enabling SNMP

To view an SG appliance from an SNMP management station, you must enable and configure SNMP support on the appliance.

To enable and configure SNMP:

1.Select Maintenance > SNMP > SNMP General.

2.Select Enable SNMP.

3.(Optional) To reset the SNMP configuration to the defaults, click Reset SNMP settings. This erases any trap settings that were set as well as any community strings that had been created. You do not need to reboot the system after making configuration changes to SNMP.

4.In the sysLocation field, enter a string that describes the appliance’s physical location.

5.In the sysContact field, enter a string that identifies the person responsible for administering the appliance.
