4.1.8.2. SNMP Trap Setup
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is used in network
management systems to monitor network-attached devices for conditions that
warrant administrative attention either on-site or remotely. A network administrator
can use SNMP to monitor the availability-performance-error rates either on-site or
remotely over a network, which facilitates central clock management.
NOTE: The following SNMP-related Request for Comments (RFCs) and
Management Information Bases (MIBs) are supported:
RFC 1213 – Management information Base (MIB) II
RFC 1215 – Generic Traps (coldStart, linkUp, authenticationFailure only)
RFC 1316 – Character MIB
RFC 1317 – RS-232 MIB
DIGI-DEVICE-INFO.mib – A Digi enterprise MIB for the Digi Connect Family
DIGI-SERIAL-ALARM-TRAPS.mib – A Digi enterprise MIB for sending alarms
as SNMP traps
For additional information, please consult the above RFCs on the Web.

administrator.
3. Enter the Port number (default port = 162). You may need to get this
information from the network administrator.
