SNMP General Settings fields

To edit the SNMP General Settings fields, ensure that the SNMP Enabled check box is selected (SNMP is disabled by default). Click the Submit button to save all changes or the Cancel button to abandon changes.

SNMP Community Name fields — The two names are similar to passwords, granting public, read-only [SNMP (rd)] and private, read-write access [SNMP (wrt)] to the NMS. The default names are public and private.

Contact Name and Location fields — The two fields add optional information as to the location of the NMS. By default, Not Specified is assigned to the Name and Location fields.

SNMP Port field — This field identifies the port that the NMS uses to communicate with the switcher and should only be changed by IT personnel. The default port is 161.

SNMP Manager (Trap Target) fields

To edit each row of the SNMP Manager (Trap Target) settings, click the Edit button to make the fields available for editing. The button changes to Save. After editing the associated settings, click the Save button.

The three IP Address fields identify up to three NMS targets to receive trap notifications of the switcher failure and repair status or a mix of trap types to the same target.

The check boxes and drop boxes associated with each IP address field permit the operator to specify specific criteria under which the switcher sends trap notifications.

In the associated Missing Input drop boxes, select the inputs to trap the presence or absence of a signal.

Check the Fans and Power boxes to trap the fans and power supplies.

In the associated Notification Options drop box, select whether to notify the target of failures, fixes, both, not notified, or to remove the target from trap list (select Delete SNMP Target). The Suspend option is useful for temporarily removing NMS stations from the notification list when they are unavailable.
