6.4.8 Set MIB Value Button
: Changes the values of the checked variables, using the SNMP Set operation. The values
in the MIB Value fields are sent to the SNMP agent on the device.
Note - SNMPv3: Depending on the WRITE VIEW access settings of the User Account Name
used, there is a possibility that Device Manager may not be able to set some MIB values.
When this happens, a "No access error." value will be displayed on the affected MIB Value
cells.
Note - SNMPv3: If the User Account Name does not have READ VIEW but has WRITE
VIEW access for a MIB variable, you may still set the value of that variable. However, the
new value will not be displayed on the affected MIB Variable cells.
Note - SNMPv3: Device Manager still allows the user to set values for the following
parameters even if the user has No Write access to these:
• System Name
• System Contact
• System Location
The write attempt will eventually fail and the value, "No access error" will be displayed on
the value column for the said parameters. Additionally, the new values set will be displayed
on the Panel Window, but once the user refreshes the display, the values on the Panel
Window will be reset to the original values set on the device.
6.4.9 Threshold Button
: Set a threshold on the selected variable. The threshold is used to monitor the variable's
value. If the threshold is exceeded, the action configured on the Options menu is executed.
To select a variable, click the MIB Variable field of the target variable. When you click the
Threshold button, the Edit Threshold Item dialog box appears.
Edit Threshold Item dialog box
The MIB Variable field shows the selected variable name.
