Using the BTS SNMP Agent

Revised: February 18, 2010, OL-16000-07

Introduction

This chapter explains how to use the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) agent.

The BTS uses a SNMP agent to communicate with a service provider’s network management system (NMS). Working together, the SNMP agent and NMS monitor and control BTS components on the managed network. The NMS does most of the processing and provides the majority of memory resources. The SNMP agent collects statistical data (traffic measurements) for the following BTS components:

•	AINSVC	•	Element	•	MGCP Adapter	•	SNMP
			Manager
•	Announcement	•	H323	•	POTS-Feature	•	SUA
					Server
•	Audit	•	INAP	•	SCCP	•	TCAP
•	Billing	•	ISDN	•	SCTP	•	TSA
•	Call Processing	•	ISUP SGA	•	SIA	•	Trunk
•	DQOS	•	M3UA	•	SIM

Using the SNMP agent a user can do the following:

•View and change the status of individual BTS components

•View and change the status of a group of BTS components

•View SNMP trap (alarm) reports

Managing User Access to the SNMP Agent

The SNMP agent has access levels. Tasks you can perform depend both on your user group (community) and CLI security privileges.
