Enabling and Disabling SNMP Authentication Traps

5

Administrators can enable or disable SNMP authentication traps. When

the library receives an SNMP message that does not contain the correct

community string or other authentication information, the library sends

an SNMP authentication trap message to registered remote management

systems, indicating the authentication failure. SNMP authentication traps

are disabled by default.
See the Dell PowerVault ML6000 Basic SNMP Reference Guide for further

configuration and access details.
You cannot enable or disable SNMP authentication traps from the

operator panel. The path to open the appropriate screen is as follows:

• From the Web client select

Setup > Network Management > SNMP

.

Downloading the SNMP MIB

5

The library supports an SNMP MIB that can be used to integrate the

library with commercial SNMP management applications. The MIB can

be queried to obtain the status of the library and many of its individual

components. Administrators can download the SNMP MIB from the

library. The MIB can then be installed on an SNMP external management

application.
For more information about the library MIB, see the Dell PowerVault

ML6000 Basic SNMP Reference Guide or contact Dell Technical Support

(see

Appendix C, Contacting Dell

). For information on integrating MIBs

with an SNMP management application, contact your network

management application vendor.
You cannot download the SNMP MIB from the operator panel. The path

to open the appropriate screen is as follows:

• From the Web client select

Tools > Download SNMP MIB

.
