D: SNMP : Simple Network Management
Protocol
• SNMP MIB
Definition Sample
Management Information Base (MIB)
The management information base (MIB) is a type of database used
to compile the information from the various SNMP agents. Reports
from various agents, such as the AirLink device, are sent as data in
form designed to be parsed by the NMS into its MIB. The data is
hierarchical with entries addressed through object identifiers.
SNMP Traps
SNMP traps are alerts that can be sent from the managed device to
the Network Management Station when an event happens. Your
AirLink device is capable of sending the linkUp trap when the network
connection becomes available.
Listening Port
*SNMPPORT sets the port for the SNMP agent to listen on. If set to
zero, default, SNMP is disabled.
Tip:
SNMP generally uses port 161, however most Internet providers
(including cellular) block all ports below 1024 as a security measure. You
should be able to use a higher numbered port such as 10161.
Security Level
*SNMPSECLVL sets the security level and which version of SNMP
communications are used.
•0 - No security required. SNMPv2c and SMNPv3 communica-
tions are allowed.
•1 - Authentication required. SNMPv3 is required to do authenti-
cation and SNMPv2c transmissions will be silently discarded.
Authentication is equivalent to the authNoPriv setting in SNMPv3.
•2 - Authentication required and messages are encrypted.
SNMPv3 is required to do authentication. SNMPv2c and
SNMPv3 authNoPriv transmissions will be silently discarded.
Authentication and encryption is equivalent to the authPriv
setting in SNMPv3.
