4.2.4 System Admin->SNMP Configuration
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a messaging protocol allowing communication between network managers and agents. An SNMP manager is part of a network management system (NMS), allowing an administrator to manage the network by making requests to agents. An SNMP agent provides an interface to a managed device containing managed objects in a management information base (MIB).
At the request of an SNMP manager, an SNMP agent retrieves or stores values in the MIB, which contains information about the device and network. The SNMP agent can also send asynchronous traps, which alert the SNMP manager to certain conditions on the network. A trap could result from improper user authentication, PoE power usage over threshold or network topology changes.
Manage the ES3000 by SNMP from a network management station. Configure the switch to participate in the SNMP community and add the host agent to the host table. This prevents unauthorized SNMP access to the switch from
