SNMP Agent

The SNMP Agent settings are as follows:

  • SNMP Name – Name for the device to use for OID 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.5 (As defined by SNMP MIB-2)
  • SNMP Description – Description for the device to use for OID 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1 (As defined by SNMP MIB-2)
  • SNMP Contact – Contact information for the device to use for OID 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.4 (As defined by SNMP MIB-2)
  • SNMP Location – Location information for the device to use for OID 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.6 (As defined by SNMP MIB-2)
  • SNMP Version – Choose SNMPv2 or SNMPv3
  • SNMP Local Engine Id – (SNMPv3 only) Displays the agent's unique identifier, which is used to identify the Selenio frame
  • SNMP Community String – Represents both read and write community strings for the device.  The setting here must match that in a MIB browser in order for the MIB browser to communicate to the device via SNMP
