SNMP Interface
Overview
The 4900 Series DSLAM can be managed using the Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP).
This implementation uses a portion of SNMP v1.0: the MIB-II System Group and
Interfaces Group of OIDs. SNMP uses MIBs (Management Information Bases)
sanctioned by the IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force). MIBs are composed of
OIDs (Object Identifiers), each of which represents a system configuration or
request for data.
You will not be able to manage your DSLAM via SNMP until you have set the unit
IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway. See
Management Configuration in
Chapter 5, Configuration Using the NMS or Using the CLI to Establish Inband
Management in Chapter 6, Command Line Interface.
