Dell 3548 manual 221

The SNMP Global Parameters page contains the following fields:

•Local Engine ID (10-64 Hex Characters) — Indicates the local device engine ID. The field value is a hexadecimal string. Each byte in hexadecimal character strings is two hexadecimal digits. Each byte can be separated by a period or a colon. The Engine ID must be defined before SNMPv3 is enabled.

–For stand-alone devices select a default Engine ID that is comprised of Enterprise number and the default MAC address.

–For a stackable system configure the Engine ID, and verify that the Engine ID is unique for the administrative domain. This prevents two devices in a network from having the same Engine ID.

•Use Default — Select to use the device generated Engine ID. The default Engine ID is based on the device MAC address and is defined per standard as:

–First 4 octets — first bit = 1, the rest is IANA Enterprise number = 674.

–Fifth octet — Set to 3 to indicate the MAC address that follows.

–Last 6 octets — MAC address of the device.

•SNMP Notifications — Enables or disables the router sending SNMP notifications.

•Authentication Notifications — Enables or disables the router sending SNMP traps when authentication fails.
