Configuring SNMP

To assign a VLAN tag to a service, use the following command:

config service vip <ip address> vlan <vlan_tag_number> port <number>

protocol [tcp|udp] [L4|L7] server-group-name <label>

Configuring SNMP

Any network manager running the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) can
manage the switch, provided that the management information base (MIB) is installed
correctly on the management station. Each network manager provides its own user
interface to the management facilities. If you are not familiar with SNMP management,
refer to the following publication:

The Simple Book by Marshall T. Rose

Changes to SNMP settings are executed immediately, and do not require the

build

command.

Table 4-4 describes how to configure SNMP settings for the application switch.
