A.5.2 Changing the SNMP port used by a NetVue Agent

To cause NetVue to use another port:

1. Open the file:

C:\Skyline NetVue\NetVue.xml

2. Change the port specified in the SNMP tag.

In this example, NetVue uses port 461:

<NetVue>

<SNMP port="461"/>

</NetVue>

A.5.3 Identify which port NetVue is using

To find which port is in use, look in this file:

C:\Skyline NetVue\Logging\SNMPAgent.txt

If the default port is in use, then you will find text like this:
2010/08/09 10:33:52.070|SNMPAgent|6336|6664|SNMP Agent Port|DBG|1|

Local SNMP Port set to 161 (DEFAULT)

If a non-default port is in use, then you will find text like this:
2010/08/09 10:35:13.621|SNMPAgent|3288|3428|SNMP Agent Port|DBG|1|

Local SNMP Port set to 461 (OVERRULED)

A.6 Configuring SNMP agent community strings

You can configure the community strings used by the SNMP Agent of a DMA.

A.6.1 On a DMA level

1. Open C:\Skyline NetVue\NetVue.xml.
2. Specify the community strings in the SNMP tag:

<SNMP writeCommunity="set" readCommunity="get"/>

A.6.2 On element level

1. Open C:\Skyline NetVue\Elements\[ElementName]\element.xml.
