SNMP Configuration 9-3
• Get - Allows the manager to retrieve an object variable from the agent.
• GetNext - Allows the manager to retrieve the next object variable from a table or list within an agent.
In SNMPv1, when a manager wants to retrieve all elements of a table from an agent, it initiates a Get
operation, followed by a series of GetNext operations.
• Set - Allows the manager to set values for object variables within an agent.
• Trap - Used by the agent to inform the manager of some events.
9.2 Supported MIBs
The Prestige supports MIB II that is defined in RFC-1213 and RFC-1215. The Prestige can also respond
with specific data from the ZyXEL private MIB (ZYXEL-MIB). The focus of the MIBs is to let
administrators collect statistic data and monitor status and performance.
The Prestige acts as an SNMP agent. Users must implement their own GUI on SNMP platform (SNMP
manager).
9.3 Configuring SNMP
To configure SNMP, select SNMP Configuration (enter 22) from the main menu to open Menu 22 -
SNMP Configuration, as shown in the figure below. The “community” for Get, Set and Trap fields is
simply SNMP’s terminology for password.
