Using a SNMP Manager
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) lets you monitor and manage your router from an SNMP Manager. It provides a remote means to monitor and control network devices, and to manage configurations, statistics collection, performance, and security.
The SNMP Configuration table lists the SNMP configurations by:
•IP Address: The IP address of the SNMP manager.
•Port: The trap port of the configuration.
•Community: The trap community string of the configuration. To create a new SNMP configuration entry:
1.Select Administration from the main menu and SNMP from the submenu. The SNMP screen will display.
2.Under Create New SNMP Configuration Entry, enter the IP Address of the SNMP manager in the IP Address field and the Subnet Mask in the Subnet Mask field.
•If you want to allow only the host address to access the VPN firewall and receive traps (for example, see Figure
•If you want to allow a subnet access to the VPN firewall through SNMP, enter an IP address of, for example,192.168.1.100 with a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0. The traps will still be received on 192.168.1.100, but the entire subnet will have access through the community string.
