Configuring the System for SNMP
When you enable SNMP for your system, you can configure the following:
Specify an agent address. See “Setting an Agent Address” on page 255
Configure traps. See “Configuring Traps” on page 256.
Setting an Agent Address
An agent address is a specific IP address at which the SNMP agent listens and responds to requests. The default behavior is for the SNMP agent to listen to and respond to requests on all interfaces. If you specify one or more agent addresses, the system SNMP agent listens and responds only on those interfaces.
You can use the agent address as another way to limit SNMP access. For example, you can limit SNMP access to one secure internal network that uses a particular interface by configuring that interface as the only agent address.
To set an SNMP agent address
1.Choose SNMP under Configuration in the tree view.
2.Enter the valid IP address of a configured interface in the Agent New Address field. You can use the IP address of any existing and valid interface.
3.Click Apply.
The IP address and a corresponding Delete check box appear.
4.Click Save to make your change permanent.
