ZebraNet Alert Using SNMP

You can send notifications over SNMP only, for use with ZebraNet Alert or a similar network
management utility.

To configure the 10/100 Internal PS to send alerts across a TCP/IP Network
using ZebraNet Alert, complete these steps:

1.

From the task bar, select

Start > Programs > ZebraNet Utilities > ZebraNet View

.

2.

Select the printer you want.

3.

To assign your printer an IP address, from the menu bar, select

Print Server >

Configuration

.

4.

For PrintServer SNMP Traps, select the SNMP Traps tab.

5.

Enter the trap destination and options.

This tells the 10/100 Internal PS what TCP/IP address to send the alerts to, and under what
circumstances to send error and log reports. Entering 255.255.255.255 broadcasts the
message to every host on the network with an SNMP program running.

6.

For ZebraNet Alert to get and display the messages, you need to open ZebraNet Alert. To
do this, follow these steps:

a.

From the task bar, select

Start > Programs > ZebraNet Utilities > ZebraNet Alert

.

b.

In the ZebraNet Alert dialog, from the menu bar, select

View > Filter Settings

.

c.

From the View Filter - Devices tab, choose your settings accordingly.

The View Filter - Events tab allows you to select individual events you want the
program to be aware of.

WebView. From the printer’s home page, activate the link to Alert Setup. You can add
messages that are sent to the ZebraNet Alert for Windows by choosing SNMP as a
destination.
