Simple Network Management Protocol Menu

Use the SNMP menu to configure basic information and management access settings for the Simple Network Management Protocol. The switch includes an onboard agent that continuously monitors the status of its hardware, as well as the traffic passing through its ports, based on the SNMP. A network management station can access this information using software such as EliteView. Access rights to the onboard agent are controlled by community strings. To communicate with the switch, the management station must first submit a valid community string for authentication. The options for configuring community strings and related trap functions are described in the following sections.
