Polycom CMA System Operations Guide

Setting

Description

 

 

Trap/Inform

Specifies the type of information that should be sent

 

to the host receiver. Possible values are:

 

Inform—An unsolicited message sent to a

 

 

notification receiver that expects/requires a

 

 

confirmation message. Introduced with SNMP

 

 

version 2c, this option is not supported by

 

 

systems that only support SNMP version 1.

 

Trap—An unsolicited message sent to a

 

 

notification receiver that does not expect/require

 

 

a confirmation message.

 

 

SNMP Version

For SNMPv3, specifies the context for the

 

information.

 

The CMA system is a proxy-forwarding application. It

 

passes SNMP requests to its various

 

SNMP-reporting processes based on the context

 

information in the SNMP message. For SNMPv3,

 

this context is identified by contextName and

 

contextEngineID.

 

 

V3 Local Engine Id

For SNMPv3, displays the CMA system

 

contextEngineID for SNMPv3.

 

 

Security User

For SNMPv3, specifies the security name required to

 

access a monitored MIB object.

 

 

Auth Type

For SNMPv3, specifies the authentication protocol.

 

The CMA system implements communication with

 

authentication and privacy (the authPriv security

 

level as defined in the USM MIB).

 

Possible values for authentication protocol are:

 

MD5

 

SHA

 

These protocols are used to create unique

 

fixed-sized message digests of a variable length

 

message. MD5 creates a digest of 128 bits (16

 

bytes) and SHA creates a digest of 160 bits (20

 

bytes).

 

 

Auth Password

For SNMPv3, specifies the authentication password

 

that is appended to the authentication key before it is

 

computed into the MD5 or SHA message digest.
