Tripp Lite 93-2879, B096-048, B096-016 owner manual Adding more than one Snmp server

The snmpd.conf is extremely powerful and too flexible to cover completely here. The configuration file itself is commented extensively and good documentation is available at the net-snmpwebsite http://www.net-snmp.org, specifically:

Adding more than one SNMP server

To add more than one SNMP server for alert traps, add the first SNMP server using the Management Console (refer to Chapter 7) or the command line config tool. Secondary and any further SNMP servers are added manually using config.

Log in to the Console Server’s command line shell as root or an admin user. Refer back to the Management Console UI or user documentation for descriptions of each field.

To set the Manager Protocol field:

config --set config.system.snmp.protocol2=UDP or config --set config.system.snmp.protocol2=TCP

To set the Manager Address field

config --set config.system.snmp.address2=w.x.y.z

.. replacing w.x.y.z with the IP address or DNS name.

To set the Manager Trap Port field

config --set config.system.snmp.trapport2=162

.. replacing 162 with the TCP/UDP port number

To set the Version field

config --set config.system.snmp.version2=1 or config --set config.system.snmp.version2=2c or config --set config.system.snmp.version2=3

To set the Community field (SNMP version 1 and 2c only)

config --set config.system.snmp.community2=yourcommunityname

.. replacing yourcommunityname with the community name
