Chapter 1: SNMP

Overview

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) pro- vides network administrators with the ability to com- municate management functions between an SNMP manager and an SNMP agent. An SNMP manager is a user program the network administrator can use to manage SNMP agents. The manager can retrieve Get information from the agent or alter Set information on the agent. An agent can also send an unsolicited mes- sage Trap to a manager when it encounters an unusual condition.

The OkiLAN 6010e is a fully functional SNMP agent and supports any standard SNMP management plat- form, including:

∙HP OpenView

∙Novell NMS

∙Sun SunNet Manager

∙IBM NetView

Private MIB

OkiLAN 6010e SNMP support has been enhanced with a private MIB. It is accessible via SNMP over TCP/IP and IPX. This private MIB contains over 150 configura- tion and status variables for the network protocols, printer ports, network interface printer settings, and the overall OkiLAN 6010e status. Printer status traps such as on-line, off-line, detached printer and printer error are also provided.
