Example for Configuring SNMP
Networking Requirements
An enterprise has purchased a new switch. To manage the switch using the NMS on the live network, the administrator needs to configure the SNMP service on the switch. The network shown in Figure 10-6 is secure but has heavy service traffic, so the administrator configures SNMPv2c to implement communication between the NMS and managed devices.
Configuration Description
Before configuring SNMP, complete the following tasks:
- Ensure that a reachable route exists between the switch and NMS. The configuration procedure is not provided.
- Configure SNMPv2c on the switch to be managed by the NMS running SNMPv2c.
- Configure a community name based on which the switch authenticates the NMS.
- Configure the NMS according to the NMS manual so that the NMS can manage SNMP-enabled switch. The configuration procedure is not provided.
Procedure
- Click Maintenance to open the maintenance page.
- Click in the navigation tree to
open the SNMP configuration page, as shown in Figure 10-7.
Set the parameters as follows:
- Select ON for SNMP.
- Set Version number to v2c.
- Fill adminnms01 into Community name.
- Fill adminnms01 into Confirm community name.
- Click
- Click
in the function area and click in the displayed dialog box to save the SNMP configuration.
in the function area and click Result
Perform the following operations on the NMS according to the NMS manual: set the SNMP version to SNMPv2c, set the read/write community name to adminnms01, and set the SNMP connection port number to 161 (default port used by the switch).
After the preceding configurations are complete, the NMS can manage the switch.
