F-6 VMS User Guide
Proxy Caching Support
When operating as a proxy on behalf of Comtech network equipment, the VMS
will fulfill the requests for a subset of the MIB using data collected via proprie-
tary protocols. When a request is made for one of these MIB variables, the VMS
will report the last known value without forwarding the request to the end node.
This data is collected at a frequency of at least once per minute.
To use the proxy/cache support, send SNMP queries for the modem to the
VMS, and use a specially formatted community string to identify what device is
being queried. The community string format is “community@ip-address”. For
example, to target a device with the IP address of 172.16.128.1, using a read
community of public, the community string sent to VMS would be
“[email protected]”.
