HP MPX200 Multifunction Router - Manual (Page 164)

C SNMP
SNMP provides monitoring and trap functions for managing the router through third-party
applications that support SNMP. The router firmware supports SNMP versions 1 and 2 and a
QLogic management information base (MIB). You may format traps using SNMP version 1 or 2.
SNMP Parameters
You can set the SNMP properties using HP mpx Manager or the CLI.
Table 23 (page 164) describes the SNMP parameters.
