HP J7949E manual Snmp Settings 1

SNMP

You can specify or change the SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) parameters provided. See Table 4.4.

CAUTION If you use HP Web Jetadmin to manage your devices, you should use HP Web Jetadmin to seamlessly configure SNMP v3 and other security settings on the print server.

Using the embedded Web server to create the SNMP v3 account will erase any existing SNMP v3 accounts. In addition, the SNMP v3 account information will need to be implemented on the SNMP management application. For more information, see SNMP v3.

Table 4.4	SNMP Settings (1 of 2)
Item		Description
Enable SNMPv1/v2		This option enables the SNMP v1/v2c agents on the print
read-write access		server. Custom community names can be configured to
		control management access to the print server.
		An SNMP Set Community Name is a password to be able
		to configure (or “write”) SNMP information on the
		HP Jetdirect print server.
		An SNMP Get Community Name is a password to retrieve
		(or “read”) SNMP information on the HP Jetdirect print
		server.
		An incoming SNMP SetRequest or GetRequest command
		must contain the appropriate Set or Get community name
		before the print server will respond.
		A community name must be ASCII characters and can be
		up to 255 characters long.
		The default Get community name is “public”, which can be
		disabled to restrict access by checking the checkbox
		provided.
		Note: If “public” is disabled, some port monitors or
		discovery utilities may not operate properly.
Enable SNMPv1/v2		This option enables the SNMP v1/v2c agents on the print
read-only access		server, but limits access to read-only. Write-access is
		disabled. The default Get community name “public” is
		automatically enabled.
