Assigning IP Addresses
To run SNMP properly, every device on your network must have a unique IP
address. Use the SET DEVICE IP_ADDRESS command as shown to assign an
IP address for the EMM on network 1. Note that you can set separate IP
addresses for each of the individual networks on the concentrator
backplane.
ONline> set device ip_address 195.36.58.27 network_1 [ENTER]
Creating a Community Table
The community table defines which SNMP stations on the network can
access information from the EMM and which station(s) will receive a trap
from the EMM when the EMM detects an error. For example, the following
command adds a community name of NCS with IP Address 195.36.58.217
to have read_write access:
ONline> set community NCS 195.36.58.217 read_write [ENTER]
Note that community entry names are case-sensitive. For example NCS and
ncs are different community names. Use the SHOW COMMUNITY
command to view existing community entries.
Configuring the Alert Setting
The SET ALERT command enables or disables the feature used to send an
alert to the management workstation. The following command enables the
alert feature. Therefore, when a configuration change is made to the
concentrator via SNMP, an alert will be sent to the management
workstation.
ONline> set alert change enable [ENTER]
Refer to the SET ALERT command in the ONline Management Commands
Guide for information on the different types of alerts available through this
command.
