7.1.2

Community Strings

The community strings are configured from the Telnet interface described in the configuration
section of this document. The default community strings are set to “public”.

If the device does not respond to SNMP Requests or does not appear to send Traps, confirm that
the community strings are set properly in the SNMP Manager.

7.1.3

Traps

Whenever an alarm occurs SNMP Traps are sent to up to 3 trap receivers. The Trap
Destinations are configured from the telnet interface described earlier in this document. The
traps are defined in the heCommonMIB. Each traps includes a text field that describes the trap.

7.1.4

MIB Browsers

SNMP devices are normally managed by a software system containing a SNMP Manager. The
simplest method of evaluating SNMP operation is with a MIB Browser. A free evaluation version
of a MIB browser can be downloaded from
